It’s finally here! My second book is now officially published!\"book<\/a><\/p>\n

Day One: Advanced IPv6 Configuration<\/a> is a sequel to my first book, Day One: Exploring IPv6<\/a>, and picks up right where it left off. Namely with BGP. In addition to a fairly thorough look at BGP (iBGP and eBGP \/ native IPv6 peering and sharing IPv6 routes over IPv4 peering), the book jumps into a few of the additional and often overlooked aspects of deploying an IPv6 network. This includes a look into topics and tools including VRRP, ICMPv6 rate limiting, CoS, IPv6 path MTU discovery, DHCPv6, zero hop-limit, Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) and Duplicate Address Detection (DAD).<\/p>\n

My friend and fellow IPv6 evangelist (that’s actually his job title!<\/em>), Owen DeLong<\/a> helped out a ton as a technical editor\/reviewer as I wrote the book and he also was kind enough to provide a review of the book which ended up on the back cover:<\/p>\n

“This book is a fantastic tutorial on configuring and testing BGP routing with IPv6 on your network. It\u2019s completely hands-on. It also covers native IPv6 peering and how to advertise IPv6 routes over IPv4 peering sessions. Highly recommended.”<\/em><\/p>\n
