IPv6 Workshop Lab Exercise: Basic IPv6 Functionality

Description: Enable IPv6 functionality on each router using addresses allocated by Internet2 or your lab router's "upstream" IPv6 provider. Send and receive BGP IPv6 routes.

Goals:

• Ensure your router interfaces are configured with IPv6 addresses
• Ping a neighboring router using IPv6 ICMP.
• Verify that you are sending IPv6 BGP routes to neighboring routers, where appropriate.
• Verify you are receiving IPv6 BGP routes.
• Verify connectivity around the workshop lab.
• If your workshop lab is connected to the global IPv6 Internet, verify you can ping and traceroute to a host on the global IPv6 Internet.
• Verify lab client computer (laptop) is receiving router advertisements.
