  With no understanding a howto is not useful.

  To configure your LAN for IPv6 the minimum you need to do
 is add IPv6 addresses to each host - whether that is autoconfigured,
 DHCP-provided, or just statically allocated by you.

  Once you've done that you can configure any services that
 are listening on your LAN to use IPv6 too.

  No real howto needed .. though this might be interesting:
