Review Key Topics

Review all key topics in all chapters in this part, either by browsing the chapters or using the Key Topics application on the DVD or companion website.

Create IPv6 Addressing Mind Map

Addressing is the biggest difference between IPv4 and IPv6. Think about IPv6 addresses for a few moments—the terms, the structure, the types, and anything related to addressing. Then make a mind map that collects all the addressing concepts and terms into one mind map.

When thinking about addressing, try to organize the information to your liking. There is no one right answer. However, if you want some guidance on how to organize the information, some of the concepts and terms can be organized by type of address. For instance, link-local addresses are one type. In that part of the mind map, you could list all terms and facts about link-local addresses, as shown in Figure P8-1.

Chapter 28, “Fundamentals of IP Version 6,” through Chapter 30, “Implementing IPv6 Addressing on Routers,” contain most of the IPv6 addressing concepts in this book. Try to fit all the addressing terms from the “Key Terms” sections of those chapters into the map, along with all IPv6 addressing concepts and the values that identify an address as being a particular type of IPv6 address.

Create IPv6 Configuration and Verification Command Mind Map

Create a command mind map for IPv6 router commands. Break it into two major sections: addressing and static routes. Inside each, break the commands into configuration and verification commands.

Appendix L, “Mind Map Solutions,” lists sample mind map answers, but as usual, your mind map can and will look different.

Do Labs

Depending on your chosen lab tool, here are some suggestions for what to do in lab:

Pearson Network Simulator: The full Pearson ICND1 or CCNA simulator has practice for the usual types of activities, as well as a special type of lab that lets you practice IPv6 addressing math processes by using commands in the lab. Check out all the IPv6 labs, but make sure to use the IPv6 Subnet ID Calculation and IPv6 EUI-64 Calculation labs as well. And as always in Part Review, use the configuration scenario and troubleshooting scenario labs.

Config Labs: As always, take advantage of the Config Labs for this book part in the author’s blog; launch from blog.certskills.com/ccent/ and navigate to the Hands-on Config labs.

Other: If using other lab tools, as a few suggestions: Getting used to IPv6 addresses takes some time. Do more than a few repetitions of configuring different IPv6 addresses in a small topology. Then use all the IPv6 show commands, and pay close attention to all the special IPv6 addresses created on each interface. Then add static IPv6 routes to match your subnets.
