FYI.

I found the workshop quite useful, I recommend that you should attend if you
intend on implementing IPv6 within the next 12 months.

Cheers,
Tyson.

> These workshops require a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 18

> These will again be intense 2-day hands-on workshops where

> Topics will again include: 
> 
>  - Router Configuration
> 
>  - BGP Configuration: Participants will configure BGP sessions
>    between the campus and core routers. 
> 
>  - Addressing: How addressing works, what types of addressing 
>    schemes are possible given the number of addresses available, 
>    how allocations are made, and current best practices. 
> 
>  - Bind configuration: How to populate a server with AAAA records, 
>    and how to configure it to perform both forward and reverse 
>    lookups. Discuss best    practices, bind versions required, and 
>    potential pitfalls.
>  
>  - Application Space: Participants will set up IPv6-aware servers, 
>    including HTTP and Mail. By the end of the session, participants 
>    will be able to send and receive mail, telnet or ssh and use web 
>    access over IPv6 transport. 
> 
>  - Transition Issues: How to make your IPv6 network IPv4-aware 
>    and vice versa? How extensively can you do dual stack 
>    implementations and where do you need to do translation? 
> 
>  - Discussion Issues: Several aspects of IPv6 will be covered 
> in detail.
> 
>    Among them are the effects of multihoming, how auto-configuration 
>    affects network administrators and network management. 
> 
>  - Services: What IPv6 services should be offered?  What are the 
>    best known practices for distributing IPv6 throughout a campus 
>    or state network? 
> 
> The workshops will be given by John Barlow, Advanced Communications 
> Services Coordinator for GrangeNet, based on those given in June by

> Sweeney, 
> Senior Engineer at the Abilene (Internet2) Network Operations Cent à  re.
