from the theory-meet-the-real-world dept.

Address exhaustion is finally about to make us all take IPv6 seriously.

I know the theory; heck, I've even taught the theory in networking courses. What I would like to find - and haven't - is a source of practical information for introducing IPv6 into a network. How should the firewall be set up? What does Apache need, to make a website IPv6 accessible? What about HTTPS? SSH? DNS? What are the security gotchas? Hands-on, practical stuff.

I've looked around for online courses - I've even completed one. Unfortunately, the information was pathetic; I'm not sure I actually learned anything useful. There must be good sources out there. Any Soylentils have recommendations?

    After all, we have gone from open WiFi to WEP to WPA: if encryption were purely an end-system requirement, none of that would have developed.

    That's primarily to stop people from freeloading on my wifi, using up my transfer cap, illegal downloads.

    If there were a simpler way to keep people off my wifi, then the complicated crypto stuff wouldn't get used.
