IPv6 Basics for Beginners

[@brianconner1212]

This is the best video on ipv6 for CCNA, i passed my CCNA this month. All ipv6 questions were easy attempts because of this Video... I hope everyone who is preparing for ccna finds this gem

[@seanknight9808]

Are you working now as a network engineer? What other certs you have?

[@PhillyDjHook]

[@Blueaankh]

Hey can you help me convert my Wi-Fi from ipv4 to ipv6? I have 0 clue

[@danscourses]

Glad to hear that. Congratulations!

[@MonitorZero]

Brother, thank you. This is literally 3 chapters out of the Cisco book for CCNA and you explained most of the things going over my head.

[@telavus920]

IPv6 and OSPF was the part of the CCNA that started to get really heavy for me. This video was short but very precise to what I needed. No "funnyman" or time waste, straight to the point. Thank you so much! You have a new subscriber

[@ndoukeutchatatblondel688]

This is the most concise video I have found on this subject. Hat off.

[@scottsparling9653]

Dan, I know gratitude doesn't pay the bills, but thanks so much for all your work! One of your old old whiteboard videos about subnetting made me get it quickly back when all of my 200-301classmates couldn't get it, and to this day it is simple to do in my head. thank you!

[@OfamezO]

from all the videos targeting IPv6, this one is definitly one of my favourites and helped me out big time. Clear voice, clear and good to understand explanations, nice transitions, even better examples...

[@Blueaankh]

Hey can you help me convert my Wi-Fi from ipv4 to ipv6? I have 0 clue on how to do it :(

[@ronnyzambrana9933]

Dan, I am a big fan of you, thank you so much 4 everything, I have learned much more with your videos, than going to clases!!!

[@ipv6builder797]

Have you met ipv6 builder?

[@ranjanadissanayaka5390]

Hey man...this video helped me to understand how to find the network portion of the IPv6 address. You showing the binary version of the address made a light bulb go on my brain. Before watching this I couldn't figure how to find the network portion when the prefix is not a multiple of 56. But now I got a solid understanding thanks to you. 😀 Hope to see more content from you.

[@jessedeleon4200]

I have to agree with some of the folks on this thread and say that you have a gift for teaching, free or paid, you have some of the best information out on the net, i test this week and ive been using your videos since day one, thank you.

[@alexramirez2448]

how the test go?

[@jessedeleon4200]

Pass ccna 200-125, first try

[@floyd151091]

Dan, your a natural teacher and I've been watching your videos for a while now whilst completing my Netacad Cisco switching and routing degree. As said before me, these courses are too good to be free but I speak on behalf of myself and im sure the others, we appreciate the time and effort you put in to spreading this good work online! Cheers again

[@MrBsagowitz]

Completely agree with this. I was dreading learning IPV6 but this is presented very clearly and succinctly.

[@bertie6355]

you're!!! not your...

[@wnb5508]

This is the Ipv6 video I have been looking for, easy to understand with the tables format, hats off Dan 👍.

[@wolfemata1458]

Just beginning my journey in Networking. From your video, I discovered where to place the zero(s) in compressed IPv6 addresses. Sometimes reading texts can be confusing. I'm a visual learner and your KZbin video is very informative and educational. Thank~You Dan.

[@macacinelecanale]

I was searching for this video for years. I've watched tens of videos that explained IPv6 for beginners but all so arid, nothing to understand in a "human readable" information. After watching your video I have finally understood the logic behind IPv6 address. Thank you for doing a great job!

[@charlesokoh3373]

I just love Mr. Dan’s way of teaching 💯

[@delphinejacquet4994]

This video is a great clarification of IPv6 characteristics. Thank you so much.

[@bobyrasta100]

Thank you Mr Dan, your courses are awesome, you are a teacher by nature.

[@darshitpandit5459]

Used to hate slide teaching techniques in college, but this is way too good that too for topic with very less resources online. Keep it up! Thanks a lot.

[@bantinho2480]

I think I finally understood the fundamentals of Ipv6. Thank you!

[@bhthllj]

This is a great tutorial! Cudos to the presenter for a concise presentation!

[@jake231]

Explained it so well! Can't thank you enough - best IPv6 video I have ever come across

[@has_elhussein]

Best Explaination i have ever saw Thanks a lot to you

[@mohammedal-shaboti7939]

Awesome, Simple, clear and to the point. Thank you

[@majik11111]

Dan, thank you so much for this amazing explanation! I've learned so much from your video's in such a short time considering. With watching most of your video's I think it's been a maximum of 5-6 hours. In those 5-6 hours I've learned more from you then from my Cisco teacher who has tried explaining the basics to the entire class, however I've been miles and miles ahead because of your amazing video's!. Thank you so much for putting all this effort and your time into educating other people with more networking knowledge. Greetings from a thankful young student out of The Netherlands! (17)

[@jalleharald1303]

This is a great video and resources. The go through is perfect, the slides helps a lot and you also provide the slides! It was a long time ago I saw a video this perfect for what I needed to get started with something new. Thanks!

[@adedejiemmanuel1]

Thank you. Your videos are always comprehensive.

[@julianwildauer]

Such a good explanation! ❤️❤️❤️ this man is a teacher by heart 🔥

[@GTInai]

Hey Dan! Thank you very much for this video. I know for sure that the IPV6 part of the exam was what kicked my butt. I'm very glad that I did a process of elimination and chose SLAAC on my last question haha. Sadly, I only scored 800 on my first CCNA exam. Just 25 more points and I would have passed.

[@whitelightning1683]

Awesome explanation! Thank you for your time! Much easier to grasp than the uCertify Net+ course

[@touchdownbroncos]

Fun little experiment I did. I have 2 LAN adaptors on both my machines. I run all IPV6 traffic thru one adaptor, and the IPV4 thru the other on each machine. Not only does it provide a bit of load balancing, it gives you an idea of how much IPV6 is TRULY used as of today. For me and my network, IPV6 is double the traffic of IPV4. This is reflected in the amount of data each adaptor handles.

[@dcr630]

One of the best videos I’ve seen. Great explanation

[@saeedhassani3871]

Dan, Excellent intro to IPv6, and I watched through with great interest. Just a minor correction: The 6 hextets for all-solicited nodes multicast will be 6 x 4 = 24 and not 28, which is mentioned on slides 9 and 11.

[@crouserhd297]

i was almost raging, because i couldnt find the error in my calculation xD

[@crouserhd297]

Minute 3:00 there should be 12 instead of 10 too right?

[@nasserabbassi7303]

by far the best explantation over IPv6, thanks

[@danscourses]

Thanks Nasser!

[@reeteshhurkhoo9231]

Thank you Sir. Concise but straight to the point and easily understand.

[@markjones7138]

Thank you very much for this, it's the best one I've come across and I have been looking all day! Huge relief :)

[@erich8456]

GREAT video and THANK YOU for posting the slides!

[@Username-hb1qi]

thank you for the great ipv6 info. well organized.

[@subhendu7221]

Lovely tutorial. Concepts simply explained.

[@albertgrennan2499]

Best IPv6 video I've seen. Great Job

[@Little-Jungle1]

I was listening Keith barker for about 2 days and couldn’t understand anything, he is talking too fast for me and laughing all the time 😅 This person just nailed it into my mind in just 30 minute That’s unbelievable.

[@TwosHusbandS96]

Thanks a lot for this video, helped a ton! Super clear explanation, but not boring or slow. Was able to understand everything was it was said. Nice visuals too. Appreciate it!

[@andrevisser8940]

Dan you're the man!! Thanks for this informative video.

[@bernardgarrett3897]

Very Good. Clear and Concise.

[@abels7302]

Awesome video thank you for sharing some experience and knowledge.

[@jimmy_dee]

This cleared up so much for me. Thanks

[@lucreciatex]

Hello Dan: As always enjoying your teaching. Could you please explain more about the Solicited Nodes Multicast Address??? Would be nice a full video about that subject ;) Thanks for your amazing legacy to the Network Industry. I love your work and Im so grateful for what I'm learning from you.

[@sauvus]

Very informative! Thank you so much for creating this.

[@themistoclesnelson2163]

Thanks for the Video! Helped simplify IPv6.

[@mikkio5371]

Beautiful presentation

[@krishnanvenkataraman4271]

Thank you. I benefited a lot from this video.

[@nicoladellino8124]

Very nice and useful video, THX.

[@rezaghahreman86]

Great course. Thank you!

[@TastyChickenLegs]

Really great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@ChasedWheels]

Very detailed explanation! Thanks!

[@redpurple1035]

thank you for teaching me sir. 🎈🙂❤👍🎈

[@supmyman7]

THANK you for this video.

[@kamilwojtalak7464]

Comments for statistics. Thanks for sharing the information. Love you

[@vladislavkaras491]

Very detailed viedo! Thank you!

[@misterdust1]

Great video. Thank you so much.

[@ankurece012]

Very well Explained. Thanks

[@indian3197]

Great video. One modification. In IPv6 Slaac Slide, in the first column "message", please update the sentence as " Similar to ARP in IPv4" instead of IPv6.

[@fatahhaddad5979]

thank it's helped me to undrestand well icmpv6 (RS AND RA)

[@Tankovich777]

woops so you are the man ! now the sound has a face with it !

[@freddyparra4880]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@ABMA79]

That is one of the briefest and on-point explanation. Thanks a lot. But I do have a question, I am getting the feeling that IPv6 is autoconfigured by devices, which means other than learning subnetting, as a network administrator, all you need to do is provide your IPv6 subnet and the device will handle the rest. am I right?

[@phxnetworkjunkie4596]

Great Video. Thanks Dan.

[@devinacosta6307]

Keep it going sir!

[@Little-Jungle1]

Good explanation

[@ShahAlam-xx3qd]

great teacher

[@newmennium]

Thanks for the video, but the decimal place is in the wrong position between the 2nd and 3rd octet of the binary conversion of the IPv4 address

[@reeteshhurkhoo9231]

@ 20.8 Its the last 24 bits of the destination host link local address

[@CptSpears007]

Great video and well explained, but I find the yellow circle pointer distracting. For me it makes the text under it more difficult to read. Might just be me though.

[@zt.5677]

Thanks. Very good.

[@kris___5655]

Vert informative

Dan, adamın hası. Hiç boş yapmadan anlatmış.

[@trietnguyen1745]

Very helpful!

[@DeepSeeker1951]

Thank you 🙏

[@65gtotrips]

Hi Dan, At about 26:47 you speak to configuring the Link-Local address. I thought that once you configure the Global-Unicast address, that the router automatically configures it’s own Link-Local address❓

[@iamlorindo]

Wow... that is a lot of info... I'm trying to understand it... but it's a lot

[@SterlingVanlaere]

Great information, thanks!

[@SirajFlorida]

@7:39 Why would someone buy a static IP v6 from an ISP. The whole point of static IP's is not have a DHCP address. The whole point of a DHCP address is because of the limited address space in IPv4... which is the whole point of moving to IPv4. So if you still have a randomly changing address what's the point of leaving v4?

[@alanspicertelecom]

19:15 Similar to ARP in IPv4.

[@micheal74rich]

@8-04 you were explaining that end-user i.e. corporate company can make use of hextests from /48 to /64 can be used to do subnet, which mean I could have 65536 subnets by the use of one /16 hextests ? Please confirm, my understanding?

[@NelsonboadaMovil]

Excelente

[@AnselmeBurinyuy]

Amazing

[@PraveenVas]

Hi Dan its nice video and very informative. Could you pls also explain why is the 7th bit flipped while auto configuring the EUI-64 address.

[@deadduck8307]

Very nicely done! But, RAs support DNS configuration ... maybe they didn't when the video was made? but in any case, now they do for sure. How I know: I run PiHole as my gateway which I believe does both DHCPv6 and RA, but using Wireshark, I can see the DNS server listed in the RA as a RDNS server, So, goodbye DHCP! ... though I think a lot of people (ISPs included) still do DHCP for the familiarity to IPv4.

[@bagaskararikopangestu6627]

Thank you for the video sir

[@wisampetrol]

can we use ipv6 with antidetected browser like adspower to inrease my youtube channel videos views ? hope you answer

[@chrissirhc]

Hi Sir... Would it be good to mention if there is 2 instances of continuous zeros separate by non-zeros hextets, only a single set of double colon :: can be replace. example 2001:0EB8:0000:0000:0001:0000:0000:0331/64 --> 2001:EB8::1:0000:0000:0331/64 OR 2001:EB8:0000:0000:1::0331/64 but NOT 2001:EB8::1::0331

[@hanamynetwork]

actually u can write is as 2001:EB8:0:0:1::331 where you can replace all zero bits with :0: and u only can use double colon :: one time only

[@danscourses]

Correct. You can only use a double colon once for one instance of continuous zeros. If there are 2 instances of continuous zeros you will need to choose one only to represent with the double colon

[@BijouBakson]

I noticed that he missed that bit in the presentation.

[@RajeSh-ui5ob]

Awesome thankyou.

[@ihwanell5704]

Thanks a lot

[@PradeepCheriyan]

Thank you

[@Brigade069]

What is the use of using a IPV6 over a normal connection?

[@gunner4ever924]

excellent!!

[@MrTr3D]

how did you get the ipv6? was it converted from ipv4 to ipv6?

[@JJ-sk9fj]

BUG (?) 8:20 in to the vidieo, The "compressed" has two colons, but shouldn't this be three? ie "2001:EB8:C1:2200:1:::331 /64"

[@unknown-vq1gj]

what happens if 3 devices in the same proximity have the same anycast address. Will all of them respond at the same time?

[@anwarahmed5342]

The solicited Multicast cast should have an Network portion of /104, so the interface portion should be 24 bits and not 28, Am I right?

[@SzwarcuKX5]

Are /32 (v4) and /128 (v6) networks usefull outside loopbacks? I don't really get the "network of one" idea. It only works if you don't need default gateway and broadcast (v6 has no broadcast). Is there any other purpose than network testing?

[@merkavah2911]

thank you so much!
