The doc covers Cisco routers excellently (being from Cisco, one would expect this), and does a fair job with many of the concepts. But I expect the real challenges with IPv6 will not be getting a router that works. Or configuring the common OSes. The real trouble will be the legions of embedded systems which are IPv4 only, the applications which fall apart when anything changes, and the misconfigured networks one wants to route to/though. I envision many shops will end up with desktops running IPv6 to get to the public net, with a fleet of IPv-4-only equipment and apps within the organization. Somewhat similar to how many NetWare shops ran "IPX for the LAN, IP for the web" for years. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
