Network Management using IPv6


It's not always a straightforward matter to extend IPv4 tools to manage dual-stack IPv4-IPv6 networks. In this blog we'll look at network device management tasks within the "FCAPS" model framework to help determine IPv6 readiness.
BOOK GIVEAWAY: We're looking to give away 15 copies of Nikhil Sharma's book, IPv6 for Enterprise Networks. Want one?
FCAPS
FCAPS is an acronym for Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security.  It's is a model and framework for network management defined by the ISO Telecommunications Management Network. This framework can be used to look at the IT management as a whole ranging from applications, servers, communication devices, etc.
