The Graphical User Interface (GUI) of an Operating System specifically like in Linux flavor (Ubunutu, Debian, CentOS, etc) is much easier to learn than the other none-GUI interfaces, and it can serve as a starting point for learning the system. For non-programmers, the GUI is the only interface available. The GUI is also much easier to use than the programmatic interfaces, since it is easier to point-and-click on buttons than it is to write and debug code. However, when you came to deal with much customizable application usually used for network services specifically for service running on research and education networks, you may not longer survive with pointing-and-clicking on buttons on attractive GUI. One of the major disadvantages of using any GUI is that if it does not have the functionality to do what you want it to do, then you are simply stuck. Therefore you must have to look what is happening deep inside or behind what you have seen in a nice GUI.
We started talking about IPv6 long ago, we have been talking years and we have participated in many IPv6 training/workshops and related events. Thus everybody know what IPv6 is, it uses, how does it work and how to implement it, but have you deployed IPv6 in your campus network?. Can your end users access services over IPv6?. If you haven't done it why?
In this workshop, lets get answers to above. Quickly then review basic of IPv6, its implementation details needed to deploy in a campus network and do hands on a virtual campus network (visualized based on Cisco devices).
