On the ‘web: All you ever wanted to know about EIGRP

In episode 5 the Network Collective panel dives deep into the inner-workings of EIGRP and how to tune the protocol to work best for you. This isn’t your run of the mill EIGRP training session though, so buckle up and dig in to learn a lot about a protocol which appears pretty straight forward on the surface.

This last week I was on the Network Collective discussing EIGRP with Nick Russo; even if you think this protocol is dead, it’s well worth watching or listening to. And if this isn’t enough EIGRP for you, the EIGRP book on Addision-Wesley is another good resource.

Worth Reading: World IPv6 Report

On the fifth anniversary of World IPv6 Launch, we’re excited to share a detailed report on the State of IPv6 Deployment in 2017. It really is staggering how far IPv6 deployment has progressed in five years. In mid-2012, Google measured less than 1% of users accessing their services over IPv6. Today that figure is getting close to 20%.

Individual operators, like T-Mobile USA, have deployed IPv6-only networks for their subscribers. —CircleID
