Hi Éric, I can't give you the overall conclusion, however, "Knowledge of the basic features" for me would include awareness of
- new methods for autoconfiguration (slaac vs. dhcpv6), including privacy extensions/temporary addresses - different types of addresses and how (not) to distinguish them - rough idea of scope, i.e. link local addresses and how to ping/telnet them - ways to write and shorten an IPv6-Adresses (including IPv6 in URLs and e.g. scp commands) - the topics you mentioned :-) The handling of routes and addresses on LPIC-1-Level is more or less the same as for IPv4, so I wouldn't expect any IPv6-specific configuration question someone with solid knowledge of IPv4 can't answer. Topic 109.1 is called "Fundamentals of internet protocols" and IPv6 is only one part of it. I think for most of the points the general idea is most important. I also wouldn't expect details of neighbor discovery, radvd, dhcpv6 etc. to appear in LPIC-1 since their IPv4-equivalents (ARP, DHCP configuration) are in LPIC-2. Same for deeper protocol stuff like header-fields, option headers, options in router advertisements etc. Regards, Fabian BTW: The objectives also mention "Knowledge of the major differences between IPv4 and IPv6". These differences might give some more hints on which (new) features one could take a closer look to.
