CDRouter IPv6 Basics

Overview

This training module builds on the foundation of CDRouter Basics by introducing CDRouter’s IPv6 expansion test suite and the basic configuration steps needed to begin testing IPv6 on your devices.

CDRouter’s web UI will again be used extensively for this session. New configurations and packages for IPv6 will be created and the IPv6 Top 100 Testlist will be introduced with a goal of having these tests successfully running on the user’s system by the end of the session.

Following this session your team should have enough knowledge to explore any additional advanced features and protocols on their own. Questions about additional advanced topics that are not covered during this session can be directed via email to the CDRouter support team, as needed.

Agenda

• Create a new CDRouter configuration for the DUT (dual-stack)
  • Focus on DHCPv6 with PD on the WAN
  • Focus on DHCPv6 and/or SLAAC on the LAN
• Create a new CDRouter test package using the IPv6 Top 100 Testlist
• Launch the test package and review the results

Prerequisites

• Understand how to configure IPv6 in a dual-stack environment on the DUT.
• This training session assumes that the DUT supports DHCPv6 with prefix delegation on the WAN; if the DUT does not support this mode of operation, or if other IPv6 WAN modes are higher priority, please let us know.
• Tunneling modes such as 6to4, 6rd, MAP-E/T, and DS-Lite are not covered in this training session.
