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. Can we use shared Layer 3 IPv6 subnets?

Sjors Robroek describes his nested NSX-T lab that also includes some virtualized network equipment (virtualized Arista switches). I wouldn’t take this information as gospel, but here’s a breakdown of some of the IPv6 support available in VMware NSX. Virtualization. Servers/Hardware. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.

Michael Kashin has a great article on how Open Virtual Network (OVN, part of the Open vSwitch project) implements virtual networks in OpenStack. Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack. Virtualization. Good advice. John Kozej has a write-up on an NSX logical switch packet walk.

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. Virtualization.
