Practical Aspects of IPv6 Deployment
Plan your IPv6 network infrastructure
- Routing
- what protocol?
- co-located with IPv4 routing?
- DNS
- A and AAAA records in same zone?
- Dynamic Updates?
- Primary and secondary servers
- reverse lookup zone delegation
- Autoconfiguration
- stateless, stateful (DHCPv6), or both?
- Obtaining addresses
- your IPv6 service provider will delegate a block of address space
- 6bone is filling this role at present
Evaluate application availability
- do your required applications support IPv6?
