   I was more focusing on some of the tools available however when it comes to   
   some of the other things such as subnetting, security and such yes it's   
   slightly different than IPv4. One thing IPv6 uses is NDP vs ARP in IPv4.   
      
    MvV> There is more than one road that leads to Rome...   
      
   Absolutely! In this case it doesn't matter if you're talking IPv4 or IPv6.
