Merry Christmas!

We had a large family gathering at my parents' house and lots of presents.  Two of my interesting gifts included the following:

Infrared thermometer

It's an infrared thermometer.  Apparently my IBM T42 is 36.4°C.

Cisco IPv6 Security

IPv6 Security.

I saw quite a few mentions of Scapy as I was flipping through the book.  Should be a fun read.. or at least a good excuse to exercise my lack of Python knowledge (although I have been writing some little Python scripts to talk to the BlueZ stack via D-Bus, over the last few days).

So what did you think of the book?  I would be curious to hear your opinion.  Let me know if I can ever be of assistance regarding IPv6 Security.

Hi Scott!  I enjoyed the book.  Going into it, I thought I was aware of the bulk of the vulnerabilities in common tunneling mechanisms and ND/RA attacks, but apparently that was just the tip of the iceberg.  I hope more folks give this a read before blindly firing up IPv6 in their infrastructure and enabling RAs everywhere!
