Purpose
A knowledge base is a web-based repository of articles about some topic together with a search capability to discover information about that topic. The Search … box appears at the top of every screen in the IPv6 Knowledge Base. The IPv6 Knowledge Base was created to provide those interested in Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) networking with:
i. Lessons Learned from planning for and deploying IPv6 networks and equipment that support IPv6 across multiple geographic locations over wide-areas by enterprises, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Federal government departments and agencies, academic institutions, and small-medium organizations, as well as by small businesses and home offices with a single geographic location.
ii. General Information about IPv6 networking technologies and their deployment at all levels, from enterprise-level planning all the way down to small businesses and home offices.
iii. Tips and How-Tos on enabling support for IPv6 on a wide variety of equipment and software.
iv. Knowledge to aid in deploying networks, equipment, and software that support IPv6, rather than to evangelize or to motivate interest in IPv6.
Structure
The IPv6 Knowledge Base Initial Introduction article in the General Information section provides an overview of the structure of the IPv6 Knowledge Base.
A site map of the IPv6 Knowledge Base appears below.
