Routing & Switching

The video walks you through configuration of IPv4-Compatible point-to-multipoint tunnel on Cisco router to transport IPv6 traffic over IPv4 network among multiple IPv6 sites. We will look at characteristics and requirements to implement IPv4-Compatible tunnel, and highlight its pros and cons. IPv4-Compatible tunnel does not rely on IP scheme to be in certain format like 6to4 or 6RD tunnels, but instead it requires the next-hop IP. This allows us to run routing protocol like BGP to automate route advertisement which you will see in this lab. Packet analysis on Wireshark will be performed to help us gain better understanding of the encapsulation and packet structure.

The video walks you through configuration of 6RD point-to-multipoint tunnel on Cisco router to transport IPv6 traffic over IPv4 network among multiple IPv6 sites. We will look at characteristics and requirements to implement 6RD tunnel, and highlight its pros and cons. 6RD tunnel is based on the same methodology as 6to4 tunnel but with greater flexibility in IP scheme. Packet analysis on Wireshark will be performed to help us gain better understanding of the encapsulation and packet structure.

The video walks you through configuration of 6to4 point-to-multipoint tunnel on Cisco router to transport IPv6 traffic over IPv4 network among multiple IPv6 sites. We will look at characteristics and requirements to implement 6to4 tunnel, and highlight its pros and cons. Main limitation of 6to4 tunnel is its inflexibility of IP scheme. Packet analysis on Wireshark will be performed to help us gain better understanding of the encapsulation and packet structure.

The video walks you through configuration of manual and GRE point-to-point tunnel on Cisco router to transport IPv6 traffic over IPv4 network. We will compare differences between the two tunnel types using EIGRPv6 and ISISv6 as our test protocols and highlight their pros and cons, and when you should use one tunnel over the other. Packet analysis on Wireshark will be performed to help us gain better understanding of the encapsulation and packet structure.

The video demonstrates a method to interface IPv6 to IPv4 network using NAT-PT on Cisco router. We will cover the basic 1-to-1 static NAT, dynamic NAT, and PAT primarily translating IPv6 source IP to IPv4. We will then look at DNS ALG feature that helps rectifying an embedded IP as DNS reply crosses IPv4-IPv6 boundary, while analysing it by Wireshark. We will configure IPv4 Mapped NAT feature to automate destination NAT process by mapping the entire IPv4 address space to IPv6 /96 subnet. The lab finishes with modification of the NAT global timeout values.

The video walks you through basic and advance configuration of IPv6 BGP on Cisco router. You will be able to see configuration similarities and differences between IPv6 BGP and IPv4 BGP. Our tasks include simple route advertisement, routing process parameter adjustment, and route manipulation. You should become familiar with IPv6 BGP by the end of this lab. We recommend having basic understanding of IPv6 before viewing this video.
