I have been prepping an "afternoon IPv6 workshop" since BSides basically, for a hackathon or perhaps even its own event. Oriented to network guys, server dudes, and perhaps even programmers, who want to be more aware of and get familiar (yes, hands on) with IPv6. Some of the topics: Addressing/Subnetting, new concepts (SLAAC, ULA, privacy addressing), v4/v6 rough equivalencies where they exist and the differences from v4, NO NEED FOR NAT (but you still can), what IPv6 looks/works like for home users, to name a few.
There has been some interest expressed by others in both putting this on, and also in attending such a talk/workshop. -- Theo On May 7, 2014, at 11:22 AM, Robert Keizer <[email protected]> wrote: > I'd be interested in doing a design 101 course.. and I imagine that > with a little advertising lots of people would also attend. > > On Sat, May 3, 2014 at 4:05 PM, Rylaan Gimby <[email protected]> wrote: >> That course was really exciting to me for the reason you mentioned, it ties >> the fundamental hardware concepts all the way to the software.
