For technical capacity building within community members, Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) in collaboration with Asia Pacific Network Information Center (APNIC) is hosting a three days technical training workshop on Internet Resource Management, DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) and Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) from 18-20 July.
The training workshop will highlight key essentials of internet resource management. It will focus on understanding the structures, processes, procedures and policies involved in requesting, allocating and managing Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and Autonomous System (AS) numbers. The deployment of DNSSEC will also be discussed in detail with practical demonstration.
The training workshop will also focus on providing an understanding and hands-on exposure to IPv6, its structure, operation and technical features. IPv6 addresses and architectures, issues related to the deployment, transition and co-existence with IPv4 will also be examined.
The workshop will also feature hands-on IPv6 configurations on host computers, as well as IPv6 network building and configuration scenarios. Participants will have the opportunity to work on lab exercises related to deploying IPv6 in dual-stack operational IXP/ ISP environments as well as native IPv6 transit. It is merit to mention that for the participants registration is made on 'first come, first serve' basis due to limited seats. Interested participants are required to register themselves at APNIC website through the following URL http://www.apnic.net/events/calendar/training/2012/workshop-pk-18Jul12.-PR
