IPv6 Buzz 070: Building An IPv6 Lab, Revisited

In this week’s IPv6 Buzz episode, Ed, Scott, and Tom follow up on episode 44 and talk more about what it takes to build an IPv6 lab—both dual-stack and IPv6-only (as well as with physical hardware and in the cloud). Topics discussed include: * Resources you need in the lab besides network gear * Options for building a lab (e.g., physical, virtual, cloud, specific platforms) * Why anyone in their right mind would build an IPv6-only lab * How hard is it to switch back and forth between IPv4-only, dual-stack, IPv6-only in the lab – is it even possible to do? * How useful is automation and scripting around a lab environment? Thanks for listening!
