Program Abstract

REF: IPV6OT 6
Official vendor courseware, taught as published.
Format Live, Instructor-Led
Duration 5

IPv6 is Hard. We Make It Simple.

This intensive 5-day boot camp equips network engineers with the knowledge and hands-on skills to operate, configure, and troubleshoot IPv6-enabled networks. Our expert instructors guide you through addressing schemes, routing protocols, transition mechanisms, security considerations, and diagnostic methodologies with real-world scenarios. By Friday, you’ll be ready to deploy and maintain IPv6 in enterprise environments.

Cisco Authorized Courseware

We use Cisco’s official training materials, so you’re learning exactly what Cisco wants you to know—not third-party content that may miss the mark or fall behind Cisco platform updates.

Hands-On Lab Environment

Spend less time in slides and more time configuring. Our lab-intensive approach lets you practice IPv6 operations and troubleshooting on live network scenarios.

Built for the Federal IPv6 Mandate

Built around the federal IPv6-only requirements in OMB memorandum M-21-07, which set a target of 80 percent of federal IP-enabled assets operating IPv6-only by the end of fiscal year 2025. Whether your agency met that target or is still catching up, your team leaves able to operate and troubleshoot the result.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Cisco – IPv6
    Boot Camp FAQ

    Real questions from IT pros deciding if this course fits.
    Here's how we answer them.

    Five days on running IPv6 in production rather than introducing it: operations, configuration, security, and structured troubleshooting on Cisco platforms. It covers addressing and neighbor discovery behavior, routing protocol operation under IPv6, dual-stack and transition mechanics, and the diagnostic workflow for when any of it misbehaves.

    Network engineers, system administrators, and IT professionals deploying or managing IPv6 in enterprise networks. It suits teams past the pilot stage who now have IPv6 carrying real traffic and need the operational depth that comes after the design decisions are made.

    A solid understanding of networking concepts and IPv4, plus familiarity with routing protocols and network design. This is an operations and troubleshooting class, so it assumes you can already read a routing table and reason about a path. Engineers new to IPv6 entirely are better served by our IPv6 Fundamentals and Design course first.

    No. This is skills training with no exam attached and no certification issued. You receive a Training Camp certificate of completion for the five days. The material does map onto the IPv6 content in Cisco professional and expert tracks such as CCNP Enterprise, so it supports that preparation without being an exam prep class.

    Five days, combining instruction, lab work, and troubleshooting scenarios, led by an experienced instructor. The labs carry the weight here: you spend a substantial share of the week diagnosing broken IPv6 environments rather than reading about them.

    Take Fundamentals and Design if you are planning an IPv6 deployment and need addressing strategy, routing design, and transition planning. Take this one if IPv6 is already running and your problem is keeping it healthy and fixing it under pressure. Engineers who own a live dual-stack network usually want this course.

    Partly, but the timing is wrong. If IPv6 is still a future project, the design course serves you better. Come here once you have something running, because the troubleshooting material only sticks when you have an environment to map it onto.

    Diagnose IPv6 reachability failures methodically instead of by trial and error, read neighbor discovery and routing behavior correctly, secure an IPv6 deployment against the attacks that do not exist in IPv4, and operate a dual-stack network without treating the IPv6 half as a mystery.

    Yes, and for this course it is often the better option. Private delivery lets us build the troubleshooting scenarios around your actual topology and addressing plan, which makes the week transfer directly. Contact us for group pricing.
