a lab example, usually associated with a specific network simulator and with links to config files
In Part 1 of this series, we performed some practical experiments to show how interfaces in an IPv6 network configure themselves with link-local IPv6 addresses when they start up. We also showed how to manually configure IPv6 addresses on a Linux system. In this post, we will use an open-source network simulator to demonstrate another […]
IPv6 addressing is about more than just a longer 128-bit address length. The working groups that defined IPv6 were trying to solve some of the problems that programmers, network administrators, and network engineers were encountering with IPv4. The way that IPv6 prefixes and addresses are assigned and configured differs significantly from IPv4. IPv6 offers some
The Netkit open-source network simulator was created by a group of university professors who use it as a tool in their teaching. They created a large number of pre-configured lab scenarios, each with lecture slides that describe the scenario and the technology used in the scenario, and make these assets available on the Netkit web
