Book Objectives
The main purpose of the book IPv6 with MikroTik RouterOS is to teach readers how to understand and manage IPv6, the Internet protocol that allows devices to connect on a global network.
Throughout six chapters, topics related to the IPv6 protocol, its security, transition mechanisms and interoperability are addressed.
Chapter 1: Introduction
This chapter presents the basic concepts of IPv6, its history, and the reasons for its creation. Additionally, the differences between RouterOSv6 and RouterOSv7 in IPv6 are explored and the distribution of IPv6 addresses is explained. The different types of IPv6 addresses and their notation are also discussed.
Chapter 2: IPv6 Protocol
It focuses on address allocation, including SLAAC and DHCPv6 PD Server and Client. Likewise, the general properties of Neighbor Discovery, an essential protocol for communication between nodes in a network, are described.
Chapter 3: IPv6 Packet
This chapter focuses on IPv6 header encapsulation and fields, also describing the different types of IPv6 header extensions.
Chapter 4: IPv6 Security
Addresses security in IPv6, covering topics such as ICMPv6, Neighbor Discovery Protocol, SEND (Secure Neighbor Discovery), temporary addresses, IPv6 firewall, and IPsec configuration.
Chapter 5: Transition Mechanisms
Analyzes the different transition mechanisms used to migrate from IPv4 to IPv6, describing types such as Dual Stack, Tunnels, 6to4 Tunnels, 6RD Tunnels, Teredo and DS-Lite.
Chapter 6: Interoperability
Studies the different types of tunnels used for interoperability between IPv4 and IPv6, including IPIPv6, EoIPv6, GRE6 and PPP IPv6 tunnels.
By the end
In conclusion, the book IPv6 with MikroTik RouterOS provides readers with the necessary tools to understand and manage IPv6 in various aspects, from its history and protocol to its security, transition mechanisms and interoperability.
