A follow up to a IPv6 presentation given last year

Last year I gave an a Presentation on what Salt Lake District was doing to incorporate IPv6 into our network. It contained our phases of IPv6 deployment and security. This session will be a report on how far we have come and give details on how to deploy things like Static IPv6 addressing, SLAAC and DHCP for IPv6.

As K-12 districts face rising costs and limited funds, it’s crucial to ensure you get the best value for your money when purchasing technology. Join me for a discussion on what to consider and some helpful tools to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of devices over their lifespan.

In this session, we’ll dive into the factors that contribute to the cost of a student or teacher device in K-12 education. We’ll examine various expenses, such as breakage costs, management expenses, and accessories. Additionally, we’ll use a calculator to comprehensively analyze all costs and determine the annual total cost of ownership per device.
