ITS-200series IPv6 Training System

In addition to providing more address space, IPv6 not only increases routing efficiency and network-layer security (built-in the IPSec encryption mechanism) but also creates new ways of addressing and more advanced QoS mechanisms, as the protocol develops.

The design purpose of ITS-200 series is to provide learners with a clear and comprehensive understanding of the protocol and operating behavior of the IPv6 specification. The complete system includes ITS-201(host:client) , ITS-202(host:server) and ITS-203(router). The interaction of these three devices can perform experiment as a group or stand alone.



ITS-201 (host: client)

1. IPv4 and IPv6 Dual-Stack system
2. Support Remote Packet Capture Service (RPCAP)
3. Using filterable TAP to complete load-balancing and port-bonding to avoid browsed packet loss.
4. Provide GUI software to send and browse IPv4 and IPv6 packet.
    IPv4 : ICMP, TCP, UDP
    IPv6 : Support ICMPv6, DHCPv6, Upper layer packet format and “Next Header” with Hop-by-Hop, Routing,
              Fragment, Destination…etc.  
5. Console and Port1~Port4 connect ports all support Auto-Negotiation.
6. Experiments cover OSI Model 2~7 layer.

 
 
ITS-202 (host: server)
 
1. ITS-202 (host : server), one of ITS-200 series, is designed by a series of internet service and web-based GUI interface.
2. ITS-202 can be configured as 2 types of server :
    A type offers IPv6 DHCP, IPv6 DNS and IPv6 web services.
    B type offers IPv6 FTP, IPv6 SMTP, IPv6 POP and IPv6 web  services.
3. In order to provide cross-platform design, ITS-202 can also be configured through Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla
    Firefox, Google Chrome and other browsers.
 
 
 
ITS-203 (router)
 
     ITS-203(router) , one of ITS-200 series , is designed by a series of network topology and user friendly GUI software. It supports static and dynamic routing protocols. ITS-203's dynamic routing protocol supports RIPng (Routing Information Protocol next generation)  and  OSPFv3 (Open Shortest Path First for IPv6). Both are Interior Gateway Protocol(IGP) .
