Abstract: This tutorial will provide an introduction to IPv6. Topics covered included a brief history, as well as an explanation of the protocol and status of the IPv6 standards. It then will cover how the addressing works, and the changes in routing protocols, before looking at how service providers might include IPv6 within their existing Internet backbone infrastructure.
