Last year on World IPv6 Day, Cisco brought up IPv6 on Alpha for 24-hours. Now on June 6, 2012, Cisco will participate in the World IPv6 Launch with www.cisco.com. Here are some important points about the upcoming launch: • During this production launch, Website Operators, Network Operators and Home Router vendors will offer content over IPv6 for their production service (e.g. www.example.com). • This is a “turn it on, leave it on” event. • We wi…

…based on IP protocols is important with IPv6, but now you also have to be concerned with filtering extension headers as well. For instance, one extension header that you should definitely deny is the Routing Header (RH) Type 0, since this is essentially the same as source routing in IPv4. Fortunately, the RH Type 0 extension header was deprecated by RFC 5095 so it should not be allowed by default on many devices (this has been the default for I…

In January 2011, Internet companies around the globe announced they would come together to perform the largest test of IPv6 deployment the world had ever seen. Cisco was among the first to proudly announce its official participation in World IPv6 Day, and after several months of preparation and an intense 24 hours in June, it was clear that we had witnessed a watershed moment in the move towards global deployment of IPv6. So what next after this…

Last week my colleagues and I were excited to deliver a 4-hour lab on IPv6 Security at Cisco Live London 2013. The training enabled students to correctly identify, classify, and deter or prevent the nefarious IPv6-specific behaviors. They did so by configuring network threat defense, countermeasures, and controls that were implemented and deployed on infrastructure devices as well as validate their effectiveness. Some of the nefarious behaviors…
