1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,972 2 00:00:00,972 --> 00:00:04,374 [AUDIO LOGO] 3 00:00:04,374 --> 00:00:07,500 4 00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:12,190 Hello, and welcome to Exploring IPv6 Tunneling Options. 5 00:00:12,190 --> 00:00:15,040 In this skill, we're going to be going over 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:21,410 different ways of tunneling IPv6 over an IPv4-only core. 7 00:00:21,410 --> 00:00:23,740 Now, we're going to start off actually 8 00:00:23,740 --> 00:00:26,350 by talking about dual stack, which 9 00:00:26,350 --> 00:00:31,150 is simply running both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time. 10 00:00:31,150 --> 00:00:35,140 This is critical to understand because it's actually 11 00:00:35,140 --> 00:00:38,530 a fundamental principle of tunneling because our tunnel 12 00:00:38,530 --> 00:00:41,930 endpoints are going to have to be dual stack. 13 00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:45,310 Now, the other routers in the transport network 14 00:00:45,310 --> 00:00:48,670 don't have to be, but the tunnel endpoints do. 15 00:00:48,670 --> 00:00:51,190 So we need to understand how that functions. 16 00:00:51,190 --> 00:00:53,560 Then we'll move on and talk about some 17 00:00:53,560 --> 00:01:00,640 of our manual tunnel options, GRE and IPv6 6in4 tunnels. 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,970 Then we'll start talking about some automatic tunneling 19 00:01:03,970 --> 00:01:04,849 options. 20 00:01:04,849 --> 00:01:07,580 So we'll move on to talking about 6to4. 21 00:01:07,580 --> 00:01:10,790 And then we'll talk about 6RD, which 22 00:01:10,790 --> 00:01:16,220 is used to address a drawback that we have with 6to4 tunnels. 23 00:01:16,220 --> 00:01:19,820 Finally, we'll wrap up with talking about how 24 00:01:19,820 --> 00:01:23,940 we transport IPv6 over MPLS. 25 00:01:23,940 --> 00:01:26,330 Now, that's not directly tunneling, 26 00:01:26,330 --> 00:01:29,270 but it is encapsulating the IPv6, 27 00:01:29,270 --> 00:01:33,600 and it is still carrying it over an IPv4-only core. 28 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,960 So it does sort of belong in the same category. 29 00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:40,100 So as you can hear, we have a whole lot of fun stuff 30 00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:40,920 to cover. 31 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,250 So join me as we jump in and start 32 00:01:43,250 --> 00:01:47,140 talking about our IPv6 tunneling options. 33 00:01:47,140 --> 00:01:51,000
