IPv6 Basics for Beginners

  • In this tutorial for beginners I discuss the structure of the IPv6 address, the network portion, the interface ID, and the network prefix. The function of the different types of IPv6 addresses: global unicast, link-local, unique local, and anycast. How SLAAC works in IPv6 address auto-configuration along with EUI-64 to auto-configure the interface-id. The role of ICMPv6 in router and neighbor solicitation and advertisement (RS, RA, NS, NA). I also go over IPv6 addresses that are important to know like IPv6 all routes default gateway, loopback, and multicast addresses like the all solicited nodes multicast address.

    @touchdownbroncos Před 7 měsíci

    Fun little experiment I did. I have 2 LAN adaptors on both my machines. I run all IPV6 traffic thru one adaptor, and the IPV4 thru the other on each machine. Not only does it provide a bit of load balancing, it gives you an idea of how much IPV6 is TRULY used as of today. For me and my network, IPV6 is double the traffic of IPV4. This is reflected in the amount of data each adaptor handles.

    But I do have a question, I am getting the feeling that IPv6 is autoconfigured by devices, which means other than learning subnetting, as a network administrator, all you need to do is provide your IPv6 subnet and the device will handle the rest.
    am I right?

    After careful consideration I've decided that IPv6 is a gigantic clusterfuck of an ill-conceived attempt to resolve a problem that just by sheer luck happens to actually work. A perfect example of what you get by just bolting random bits to a shed until you just happen to make a car.

    Very nicely done! But, RAs support DNS configuration ... maybe they didn't when the video was made? but in any case, now they do for sure. How I know: I run PiHole as my gateway which I believe does both DHCPv6 and RA, but using Wireshark, I can see the DNS server listed in the RA as a RDNS server, So, goodbye DHCP! ... though I think a lot of people (ISPs included) still do DHCP for the familiarity to IPv4.
