Laser focus on IPv6 with a strong practical implementation advice

IPv6 Buzz is a great way to both learn about the protocol and implementation options and understand the current state of the market. While the protocol has been available for decades we seem to be close to the tipping point where much wider implementations become universal. The future for IPv6 is here, but not evenly distributed. Some market deployments have been growing fast and others continue to hold back. The show topics are diverse and cover a wide range. Episode titles and descriptions make it easy to see if the technology under discussion is relevant for your operations and needs.

This is a "must listen to" podcast for every network engineer.

The podcast has great content and is professionally done. I wouldn't have thought that there were so many topics on the subject that are relevant to the subject, but there are. I have learned a lot and it is influencing my IPv6 strategy.
