NETW 203 Lab 8.2.5.4 (Devry)


NETW 203 Lab 8.2.5.4 (Devry)
Objectives
Part 1: Identify the Different Types of IPv6 Addresses
• Review the different types of IPv6 addresses.
• Match the IPv6 address with the correct type.
Part 2: Examine a Host IPv6 Network Interface and Address
• Check PC IPv6 network address settings.
Part 3: Practice IPv6 Address Abbreviation
• Study and review the rules for IPv6 address abbreviation.
• Practice compressing and decompressing IPv6 addresses.
Part 4: Identify the Hierarchy of the IPv6 Global Unicast Address Network Prefix
• Study and review the hierarchy of the IPv6 network prefix.
• Practice deriving network prefix information from an IPv6 address.
Background / Scenario
With the depletion of the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) network address space and the adoption and transition to IPv6, networking professionals must understand how both IPv4 and IPv6 networks function. Many devices and applications already support IPv6. This includes extensive Cisco device Internetwork Operating System (IOS) support and workstation/server operating system support, such as that found in Windows and Linux.
This lab focuses on IPv6 addresses and the components of the address. In Part 1, you will identify the IPv6 address types, and in Part 2, you will view the IPv6 settings on a PC. In Part 3, you will practice IPv6 address abbreviation, and in Part 4, you will identify the parts of the IPv6 network prefix with a focus on global unicast addresses.
Required Resources
• 1 PC (Windows 7 or Vista with Internet access)

Note: The IPv6 protocol is enabled in Windows 7 and Vista by default. The Windows XP operating system does not enable IPv6 by default and is not recommended for use with this lab. This lab uses Windows 7 PC hosts.
