In this lab, you have to configure global unicast addresses, which does not require a lot of thinking. The harder part is the contrived part that lets you review some modified EUI-64 math, making you manipulate hexadecimal values to determine

This most recent lab asked you to configure a bunch of static IPv6 routes on the same router. Some had the exact same destination subnet, and some created host routes that overlapped with other static routes. And all were assigned

Static IPv6 routes may seem like a bigger challenge than static IPv4 routes at first. Configuring static IPv6 routes, however, can really help you learn those basic routing concepts. Check out the lab requirements, get some reps in, and

IPv6 routing has many similarities with IPv4 routing; however, the length of the IPv6 addresses can sometimes get in the way of learning the main concepts. This next lab removes those barriers with a straightforward IPv6 static route configuration

Do you know how to take an interface MAC address and determine what IPv6 address the interface would use when using EUI-64? Could you then do the reverse: take the IPv6 address, and predict what MAC address is used for
