Abstract
The paper evaluates IPv6 vulnerabilities in local area networks, by testing a diversity of attack scenarios in specific testbeds. We discuss the particularities of common threats in the context of IPv4 to IPv6 transition, and we indicate possible mitigation techniques. Experiments are conducted using tools specifically written to implement the attacks. The development platform is Scapy and the testing platform is Dynamips. Results are relevant for the development of an integrated security audit tool for IPv6.
