Abstract

Technology providers have been implementing IPv6 capabilities including networking services and security tools for the past several years in anticipation for the transition from IPv4 to IPv6. This thesis will describe the technical background and an experiment to test the capability of two different host based applications for effective packet filtering in a dual IPv4, IPv6 stack environment.
