The migration of global IP networks to the new IPv6 standard is in full swing. All network planners and administrators will be confronted with this topic sooner or later. This seminar provides comprehensive knowledge of IPv6, from the header format to addressing issues and possible applications. After attending the course, participants will be familiar with the advantages and improvements that IPv6 brings and will be able to assess the effort involved in switching to IPv6 and the requirements for the parallel use of IPv4 and IPv6. Practical exercises and the use of IPv6 on a test network round off the topic.

Hybrid training
- Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.
