Overview
IP version 6 is a new version of the protocol which addresses many issues with IPv4, including expanding the address space as well as providing support for security and mobility. It is essential that new IPv6 deployments are correctly configured for network reachability. This program is a vendor independent benchmark of your skills and capabilities in IPv6 Routing and Switching. This certification equips you with the ability to plan, implement and troubleshoot across a multi vendor network. Our hands-on approach of ‘learning through doing’ will improve your practical skills in areas of high demand in the workplace.
