I google¹d ³IPv6 for Dummies² and found this: https://www.wesecure.nl/upload/documents/tinymce/IPv6.pdf It¹s licensed from the For Dummies series, written and published by Infoblox.

I also co-authored RFC6782, intended to be guidance for landline ISPs deploying IPv6: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6782 We really tried to make it step-by-step, and you don¹t necessarily need to hit each step (as we explain in the document). > >Whats really needed, is for you gods of ipv6, to write that 'ipv6 for >ipv4 dummies', targeting service providers and telling us exactly what >we need to do.
