Summary: Excellent Introduction
Comment: There has been much talk about the Internet running out of IP addresses for several years now and how this "next generation" IP, IPv6 can help solve this problem. IPv6 is a streamlined version of the current IP version, IPv4 and among the topics this book covers is these various differences.

The book starts off in the first few chapters with a "history" of IPv4 and the reasons why it needs to be updated, along with a brief "intro" to it. One thing I hadn't known about previously was the "Internet model" of internetworking, which as four levels instead of the standard seven with the OSI model. Also covered are reasons why IPv4 no longer "works" and then the origins of IPv6.

One thing too about Ipv6 that because it is a streamlined version of IPv4, that items like headers and such are streamlined as well, some items necessary in IPv4 are not needed with IPv6. Other issues covered? Addressing, Routing, Security, related protocols, and transition strategies.

IPv6 is already being implemented around the world and this book, albeit a bit dated at this point offers an excellent description of the "next generation" version of IP.

Rating: 5
Summary: A great book for everybody who wants to learn IPV6
Comment: IPV6 Clearly Explained, is the book for anybody who would like to know what is IPV6 is all about. Instead of reading very "dry" RFCs to understand what are the issues that it IPV6 trys to solve and how it is done. One reads a clear description that also refers you to the actual RFCs. So I highly recommend this book for everyone. It also has an introduction of 4 chapters for IPV4 for folks who are not familiar with IP. I like the approach of the book and the way it is organized.

Rating: 2
Summary: I don't find this book useful at all
Comment: This book is for novices who has very little knowledge on IPv4 and now trying to know something about IPv6. My sincere advice to any serious reader on IPv6 would be, never go for this book. It gives no information but stories about how internet evolved and kind of stuff. And anybody who is working deeply on IPv4 would know that. And this book gives fifty to sixty pages of printed RFCs, may be to make the book bulky.
