IPv6 for Enterprise Networks brings together all the information you need to successfully deploy IPv6 in any campus, WAN/branch, data center, or virtualized environment. Four leading Cisco IPv6 experts present a practical approach to organizing and executing your large-scale IPv6 implementation. They show how IPv6 affects existing network designs, describe common IPv4/IPv6 coexistence mechanisms, guide you in planning, and present validated configuration examples for building labs, pilots, and production networks.




The authors first review some of the drivers behind the acceleration of IPv6 deployment in the enterprise. Next, they introduce powerful new IPv6 services for routing, QoS, multicast, and management, comparing them with familiar IPv4 features and behavior. Finally, they translate IPv6 concepts into usable configurations. Up-to-date and practical, IPv6 for Enterprise Networks is an indispensable resource for every network engineer, architect, manager, and consultant who must evaluate, plan, migrate to, or manage IPv6 networks.

Prior to this role, Muninder played a key role in defining the long-term Software and Services strategy for Cisco’s modular switching platforms (Catalyst 6500 and 4500/4900 series) including a focus on IPv6 innovations. Some of these innovations enabled dual-stack IPv6 deployments in large enterprise and service provider networks. Muninder is also a core member of Cisco’s IPv6 development council. Muninder has represented Cisco as part of multiple network design architecture reviews with large enterprise customers. Over the last 12+ years, Muninder has worked on multiple Enterprise Campus, WAN, and Data Center designs. Prior to working at Cisco, Muninder worked as a network consultant for one of India’s leading network integrators and was responsible for designing and implementing LAN, WAN, and hosted Data Center networks. Muninder lives with his wife and children in Fremont, California. Nikhil Sharma, CCIE No. 21273, is a technical marketing engineer at Cisco, where he is responsible for defining new features, both hardware and software, for the Catalyst 4500 product line. Over the last 10 years, Nikhil has worked with various enterprise customers to design and troubleshoot both large and midsize campus and data center networks. Sanjay Hooda, CCIE No. 11737, is a technical leader at Cisco, where he works with embedded systems and helps define new product architectures. His current focus areas include high availability and messaging in large-scale distributed switching systems. Over the last 14 years, Sanjay’s experience spans various areas, including SCADA (Supervisor Control and Data Acquisition), large-scale software projects, and enterprise campus and LAN, WAN, and data center network design.
