Interop Liveblog: IPv6 Microsegmentation

Scott Lowe

This session was titled “IPv6 Microsegmentation,” and the speaker was Ivan Pepelnjak. The session starts with a discussion of the problems found in Layer 2 IPv6 networks. Note that some of these attacks are also common to IPv4 and are not necessarily unique to IPv6. These protections are also expensive to implement in hardware.

There’s some networking stuff, a few security links, and even a hardware-related article. Denise Fishburne has a 7-part series on IPv6. Servers/Hardware. Eric Sloof has a link to a white paper from VMware on host power management in vSphere 7.0. Networking. Russ White shares Russ' rules for network design.

Charles Min-Cheng Chan has a write-up on using IPv6 in Mininet. Clifford Haas has a review of VMware NSX (this is from back in January). Servers/Hardware. VMware recently published a case study describing how Rackspace used VMware NSX to quickly meet new PCI DSS compliance goals. Networking. It’s pretty cool stuff.

I’m not sure if this falls here or into the “Cloud Computing/Cloud Computing” category, but Shannon McFarland—fellow co-conspirator with the Denver OpenStack Meetup group—has a nice article describing some design and deployment considerations for IPv6 in the OpenStack Kilo release. Servers/Hardware. Pretty painless, to be honest.

I highly recommend you read the entire post, but in short the five skills Matt recommends are software skills (which includes configuration management and software development tools like Git ), Linux, deep protocol knowledge, hypervisor and container networking, and IPv6. Servers/Hardware. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.

Servers/Hardware. Although it’s not feature-complete (by a long shot), VMware recently open-sourced version 0.1 via VMware Photon OS TP2. Want to run Docker Swarm with IPv6? This one isn’t quite virtualization, but isn’t quite hardware either, so we’ll throw it in here. Nothing this time around. Maybe next time!
