IPv6 Buzz 042: Why Wireless Is A Smart Place To Start With IPv6

If you’re looking for a way to bring IPv6 into your environment, the WLAN may be your best bet.
Guest Jeffry Handal joins the IPv6 Buzz podcast to tell us why. Jeffry is a consulting systems engineer at Cisco/Meraki and a long-time IPv6 evangelist and presenter (who still finds time to volunteer his time to many worthy causes).
Jeffry cut his teeth on IPv6 with an early deployment on the wireless network of Louisiana State University (LSU). This WLAN serves 40,000 users and over 100,000 devices.
Topics discussed include:

* Jeff’s experience deploying IPv6 at LSU and how the industry has advanced
* Why IPv6 is key to enabling network platforms to scale
* Why the enterprise space is finally paying attention to IPv6 and how network vendors are responding
* How IPv6 features are prioritized (or not!) by vendors
* Security capabilities enabled by IPv6
* Why IPv6 multicast requires platform optimization

Thanks for listening!
