IPv6 Primer

Presented at DEF CON 12 (2004), July 31, 2004, 2 p.m. (50 minutes)

The IPv6 Primer will encompass the basics of IPv6, including some of its roots, the transitioning mechanisms available, and some security concerns early adopters should be aware of in several different environments. This presentation is meant for anyone who has heard about IPv6, but would like to know the basics of the protocol and its implementation.
