For the following IPv6 configurations, we will be using the following simple topology:
We have five networks, three LANs, and two WANs. You can see the IPv6 addressing scheme that we are using. The IPv6 addresses that you see are only the network prefix with the prefix length, so we are going to put those IPv6 addresses manually on the routers and PCs.
Let's start with the PCs and then move to the routers. I personally like to assign the IP addresses first, test for basic connectivity, and then dive deep and start the routing configurations:
The IPv6 addresses that you see are the ones that I assigned. I am using the rule of zero. If we do not do that, then we would have to type the following:
2001:4800:FACE:1000:0000:0000:0000:0001
Not happening! So, I took out all the leading zeros.
As mentioned in the previous chapter, the interface ID does not...
