What are some of the changes to IPv6 from IPv4?

  • Address Assignment
  • Address Renumbering
  • Mobility Support
  • No NAT/PAT
  • IPSec built into protocol
  • IPv6 has smaller headers
  • No Brodacasts
  • Migration Tools

IPv6 Changes: Address Assignment Features

There are new ways to assign IPv6 address to network devices. DHCP has been upgraded but there is also something new called stateless Autoconfiguration.

IPv6 Changes: Address Renumbering

Renumbering an IPv4 network is not so much fun. Renumbering an IPv6 network is easier because there's a method to change your IPv6 prefix rather easily

IPv6 Changes: Mobility Support

IPv6 has features so a mobile device can move around the network and keep the same IPv6 address wherever you are

IPv6 Changes: No need for NAT/PAT

We have so much address space that we don't need any translation of network addresses or ports anymore

IPv6 Changes: IPSec

IPSec is built into the protocol

IPv6 Changes: Headers

IPv6 has smaller headers

IPv6 Changes: Broadcast Traffic

IPv6 doesn't use any layer 3 broadcasts anymore

IPv6 Changes: Migration tools

IPV4 and IPv6 are not compatible with each other so we need tools to make the migration nice and easy

IPv6 has ________ bit address

128 bit address

IPv4 has _________ bit address

32 bit address

Every additional bit does what to the addresses?

Every additional bit doubles the number of IP adresses

What kind of traffic does IPv6 have?

  • Unicast
  • Multicast
  • Anycast

What is unicast?

Same as with IPv4. You can have multiple IPv6 addresses on an interface.

What is multicast?

We use multicast even more for IPv6 since we don't have broadcast traffic anymore

What is anycast?

You can have the same IPv6 address on multiple hosts and your routers will make sure you are routed to the closest destination



NOTE:


You could use this for load balancing

IPv4 has public and private IP addresses and IPv6 has something similar but different. What are they?

  • Unique local
  • Link-local
  • Global Unicast

What is unique local

This is the equivalent of IPv4 address. you should use these on your own network and not on the internet.

What is the prefix for unique local?

FD00::/8

Each IPv6 device will have _______________ address.

Link Local Address

Link-Local Scope
This is when packets sent between link-local addresses and will remain on the link and will not be forwarded by routers to other subnets.

What is the prefix for Link Local?

FE80::/10

What are global unicast addresses used for?

These are used on the internet.



NOTE:


Most devices will use this

What is the prefix for global unicast?
2000:/3

What is a site local address?

This was to be used for internal networks but has been depreciated.



NOTE:


This is not going to be used

What is the prefix for site local?

FECO::/10

What is an "unspecified" IPv6 address?

This will show up as ::/128 and is used when your host has no usable IPv6 addresses.

What is a "Loopback" Ipv6 address?

The same as IPv4 127.0.0.1 but for IPv6 we use ::1/128

What is the prefix for multicast?

FF::/8

What are the multicast addresses for OSPF?

224.0.0.5 or FF02::5


224.0.0.6 or FF02::6

What is the multicast address for EIGRP?

224.0.0.10 or FFO2::A

What is the multicast address for RIP?

224.0.0.9 or FF09::9

What are the two options when we configure IPv6?

  • Manual (static)
  • Dynamic (DHCP)
When configuring IPv6 what is a good rule of thumb?
Most of the commands are the same for IPV6, you just need to type IPv6 instead of ip.

What is EUI-64?

User can manually configure IPv6 address



Explanation:


Extended Unique Identifier (EUI), as per RFC2373, allows a host to assign iteslf a unique 64-Bit IP Version 6 interface identifier (EUI-64).

What two parts does the IPv6 address consist of?
The prefix (equivalent to IPv4)
Interface ID (which uniquely identify the host)

How do you create an interface ID?

Split the mac address in half and put FF:FE in the middle.

What is Stateless autoconfiguration?

This is another method to give network devices an IPv6 address automatically



NOTE:


sometimes referred to as mini DHCP

What is NDP?

Neighbor Discovery Protocol



It operates in the link layer of the Internet model (RFC 1122)


  • autoconfiguration of nodes
  • discovery of other nodes on the link,
  • determining the link layer addresses of other nodes
  • duplicate address detection
  • finding available routers
  • Domain Name System (DNS) servers
  • address prefix discovery
  • maintaining reachability information about the paths to other active neighbor node
NDP offers two main things, what are they?
RS (Route Solicitation)
RA (Router Advertisement)
NOTE:
These help an IPv6 device to automatically configure an IPv6 address

IPv6 unicats-routing command

This command is required to finish the IPv6 configuration in order to have your router route.

What command allows your router to generate its own IPv6 address?

ipv6 address autoconfig

How do you debug neighbor discovery in IPv6?
debug ipv6 nd

What command allows you to see the cached router advertisements?

show ipv6 routers

What is DHCP called for IPv6?
DHCPv6
How does DHCPv6 work?
Since we don't use broadcasts anymore, IPv6 device will send multicast packets to FF02::1:2 Routers will forward these packets to DHCP servers

What replaces arp?

neighbor discovery

What command allows you to see the mapping between IPv6 and and mac addresses?

show ipv6 neighbors

What is DAD?

Duplicate Address Detection



IPv6 will send a neighbor solicitation to the solicited node multicast address but based on its own IPv6 address.
