Q Academy’s Manny Mandrusiak, Executive Director, and Leaoni Webb, Education Director provide a warm welcome and all the essentials for our Saturday morning gatherings. Thank you for being there Manny and Leaoni. Here’s a little something in appreciation of your hospitality.
The internet has run out of IPv4 addresses (as of Oct 2016). The future of the internet and networking will rely on the “new” IPv6 protocol.
There’s more to IPv6 than a really big address. Come and learn the basics of this foundation of the next generation Internet.
We’ll cover:
• Why do we need IPv6?
• Not your Grandmother’s IP
• IPv6 Addressing
• Hands on session (Please bring a computer for the hands on session: Pi, Laptop, BSD machine)
Resource: Craig Miller
A presentation on how to use the Raspberry Pi (and a web browser) to control the world (or just about anything in it).
