00:00:00,510 --> 00:00:05,730
In this video, we're going to discuss how you can implement IPV six addresses on hosts.

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:12,600
As an example, you can use stateless address, order configuration or slack to dynamically allocate

3
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,190
IP addresses to hosts.

4
00:00:14,670 --> 00:00:19,320
You could use DHCP to allocate IP addresses to host PCs.

5
00:00:19,590 --> 00:00:24,540
There are a lot of very similar concepts between IP version six and IP version four.

6
00:00:25,020 --> 00:00:28,560
As an example, in IP version six, you have an IP address.

7
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:30,390
In the same way that you have an IP address.

8
00:00:30,390 --> 00:00:35,250
In IP version four, you have a default gateway or default router.

9
00:00:35,550 --> 00:00:40,920
You have a subnet mask or prefix length, and you have DNS servers.

10
00:00:41,490 --> 00:00:49,200
IP Version six in a similar way to IP version four needs to dynamically learn MAC addresses, but IP

11
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:54,510
version four uses ARP and broadcasts to discover MAC addresses.

12
00:00:54,810 --> 00:01:00,120
Broadcasts aren't supported in IP version six, so ARP can't be used.

13
00:01:00,450 --> 00:01:06,930
So a different protocol needs to be used to discover the MAC addresses of other devices on Ethernet

14
00:01:07,470 --> 00:01:13,290
IP version six PCs and hosts use a neighbor discovery protocol instead of ARP.

15
00:01:13,380 --> 00:01:17,520
This is used by devices on the same subnet.

16
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,270
In other words, neighbors to discover and exchange information.

17
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:27,570
One of the big protocols that it replaces is the ARP protocol used in IP version four.

18
00:01:27,570 --> 00:01:35,040
So again, you can allocate IP addresses to IP version six hosts, either by configuring them statically

19
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:41,910
or using a dynamic allocation process with DHCP or dynamic host configuration protocol.

20
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:48,900
Or you can use stateless address, order configuration or slack to allocate IP addresses to PCs.

21
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,000
IP version six hosts require an IP address to communicate.

22
00:01:54,150 --> 00:01:57,030
They need to know what their subnet mask is.

23
00:01:57,030 --> 00:02:03,210
They need to know what their default gateway is, and they need to know what their DNS server is so

24
00:02:03,210 --> 00:02:06,090
that they can resolve names to IP addresses.
