IPv6 Essentials Webinar in March 21

This one's a different webinar but with the same topic. It had some demos about how the IPv6 information is shown in the command prompt. Not to mention the useful cheat sheet we obtained from the webinar so that you can use it to set up your network with IPv6 addresses. From the cheat sheet, there may be multiple classes and different kinds of IPv6 addresses as well as the fact that the address is divided into two parts. In addition, some parts of the MAC address are middle parts of the IPv6 address. And that gives you the EUI-64 Interface ID. There are also other types of Interface IDs for whatever kinds of IPv6 network setup you want such as the Stateful or Stateless DHCPv6 setup for example.
However, there's something I may be interested to know about having IPv6 address Interface ID with some privacy features such as RFC 4941. Also, what the webinar mentioned as well was the cloning. Just like Sysprep or whatever to remove duplicate information for cloning images or whatever in case you need to use the same image on many computers as part of the deployment process, the DUID thingy should be removed if you want to clone the Windows client by manual removal in Registry Editor.
Lastly, there are useful resources from the Book List in which I still have yet to access them but then, the webinars and workshops are more of the educational events from Gogotraining and I don't know if there will be online courses to study at that website similar to what Microsoft Virtual Academy has.
