The coverage of IPv6 in the book is not technical. It states the usual facts of IPSEC, no need for NAT and the concerns about privacy that are expressed by various groups. The most interesting chapter in the book is Chapter 10 where the author employs the DEMATEL method in order to explain how IPv6 offers advantages. [ OT: Does anybody know where one can find basic reading material about DEMATEL? I've seen various literature using variations of it with many of the authors originating from China. However I am unable to locate copies of the original DEMATEL papers or even a good survey on the subject. ] I've taken the liberty to Bcc: the author of the book, but as he is in between switching countries, he may be unavailable. -- http://gr.linkedin.com/in/yiorgos _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list [email protected] https://lists.immunityinc.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
