Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) greatly improves on IPv4, the current protocol, by vastly increasing the number of available addresses and by adding enhancements for security, multimedia traffic management, routing, and network configuration. This title thoroughly describes the upcoming protocol, from its features and benefits to its packet structure and protocol processes. It also describes how to migrate to IPv6-based internetworking, with tips about coexistence with IPv4-based systems, DHCP, DNS, and routing infrastructure. Key Book Benefits: Understand the applications and implications of the IPv6 protocol and related technology Get a head start on migrating from the IPv4-based Internet to an IPv6-based Internet Learn how to configure and use the IPv6-based stack in the next versions of Microsoft® Windows CD-romskiva ingår
