Also important to note is that many of the IPv6 advanced features, like
NAT-PT, OSPFv3, and some others aren't supported on normal 2600 routers.
These images need 96 megs running on the XM series to work. Some need
128, whether 2600XM or 3600. So between that issue, and the fact it's
not supported at all on the 3550s, it'll be a while before it's a core
topic. In fact, I'm guessing it'll be mid-2006 before a v6 only lab is
in place.

Well said. It's not that bad.

It's scary to see those ugly addresses, and there's a few new concepts
to
learn. But all in all, it should be a relatively minor step integrating
in
with existing technologies that you already know about!

For the extent of the CCIE lab (it's ok Howard, no bold statements
here!)
the implications of having IPv6 should be minor. It's not a core topic.
So
don't sweat the simple stuff!

I'd still spend time and play with it at least once and integrate it so
that
you can SEE what it does. But it's not that bad.

(and yes, I still think it's entirely evil and unnecessary, but that's
besides the point!)

Hands on playing around with it should help a bunch. I had to give a
live
demo for co-workers last week on it, and hadn't played with it at all.
But
really after about 6 hours of learning the syntax, it didn't seem too
bad.
I didn't get into QOS or complex redistribution, but learning the ACLs
and
routing protocol syntax seemed pretty easy. There are still many things
you
can't do in v6 on Cisco that you can with v4, but those missing features
are
sneaking into 12.3T versions frequently.
The tunneling and NAT-PT are a little more involved, but it's not that
bad.
The time you save by not learning VoIP should go a long way towards
knowing
V6.

Any getting ready for IPV6, If so what is a good study tool other than
Cisco
Press.
