Ron Jeremy IPv6

IPv6 is becoming a hotter and hotter topic as more and more folks realize its necessity. I know this for several reasons, not the least of which is an ever increasing flow of requests for solid IPv6 information. In trying to find a way to fill this gap, without dedicating all of my off-hours time, I am pursuing multiple avenues. This 4-part series Introducing IPv6 is one of them.

This series will provide a quick, vender-agnostic look at the IPv6 protocol, from address length to packet format, and more in between.

2011 was a fascinating year for me: I changed jobs, got divorced and fell in love (twice). I moved from the suburbs to the city and started riding to work. I was interviewed by Juniper, took 16 trips to 13 different cities, joined TheHundred Denver, and was kicked out of Canada. I started speaking more, working less, and spending more time with my kids. I published my second book, co-authored my first Internet-Draft, filed my first patent application, and re-discovered my spirituality. Oh, and I turned 30…
