Description

This tutorial is for those who have not yet jumped on the IPv6 bandwagon.

The goal is for participants to be able to understand how IPv6 works, how an addressing plan could be built for an enterprise network, and how this can be configured on FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

We will also configure services to work on IPv6 and discuss the implications of configuring PF rules for them.

To complete the tutorial, we will configure an IPv6-mostly network, where IPv6 is a first-class citizen and IPv4 is not. This should give participants enough confidence to configure IPv6 in their own environment.

The tutorial is supported by a remote lab where every participant will be given a series of virtual machines to configure following the topics presented in the theory sessions, and will also have to relate to others to complete the required exercises, like setting up web services and interacting with other groups to test their communication on the live internet.
