Testing IPv6-only Networks with Test Pod Technology

Learn about testing IPv6-only networks in this NANOG conference talk that explores the transition from dual-stack environments to IPv6-only operations. Discover the IPv6 Test Pod, a device developed through the ARIN Community Grants program that simplifies testing various IPv6 configurations. Explore different IPv6-enabled networks including dual-stack, IPv6-only, DNS64/NAT64, and 464XLAT implementations. Understand why, with global IPv6 traffic approaching 40-50%, it's crucial to move beyond traditional dual-protocol operations. Follow Internet2's James Harr as he demonstrates how the freely available IPv6 Test Pod helps IT professionals, developers, and network engineers overcome the complexities of IPv6-only network testing and prepare for an IPv6-dominant future.
