ResumoThis practitioner paper provides an introduction to investigating IPv6 networks and systems. IPv6 addressing, packet structure, and supporting protocols are explained. Collecting information from IPv6 registries and databases such as WHOIS and DNS is demonstrated. Basic concepts and methods relevant for digital forensic investigators are highlighted, including the forensic analysis of IPv6 enabled systems. The enabling of IPv6 capability in a forensics lab is shown, including IPv6 connectivity and the use of IPv6 compatible tools. Collection and analysis of live network evidence from IPv6 networks is discussed, including investigation of remote IPv6 nodes, and promiscuous capture of IPv6 traffic.
