Hi,

If you missed the Bradlug talk about IPv6 last month (or have further
questions) then it would be well worth attending this Wylug meeting on
Monday.  There's also at least two Sage-level certified IPv6 experts
on the Bradlug email list if it's questions you have.

All,

The next meeting will be on Monday 14th March at Old Broadcasting House in
Leeds.

This month we have a talk from Paul Brook on IPv6.

 IPv6 was developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to deal with
 the long-anticipated IPv4 address exhaustion. Like IPv4, IPv6 is an Internet
 Layer protocol for packet-switched internetworking and provides end-to-end
 datagram transmission across multiple IP networks. While IPv4 allows 32 bits
 for an Internet Protocol address, and can therefore support 2^32
 (4,294,967,296) addresses, IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses, so the new address
 space supports 2^128 (approximately 340 undecillion or 3.4×10^38) addresses.

Paul will be assisted by Andy Davidson of Hurricane Electric, who will be
aiming to provide a live interactive demonstration. Please feel free to bring
your own IPv6-capable wireless devices.

The talk commences at 7:00pm with the venue opening for chat and coffee from
6:30pm.

After the talk, we all go down to Mr Foleys for beer and more geeky chat.

The meeting is open to all, and new visitors are most welcome.


Cheers,

James
