Abstract
World today is incomplete without being able to be connected to the internet enabling people from different parts of the world to connect with one and another. This is all made possible with the growing networking technology especially to mention the wireless technology where internet is at one’s service no matter where one is present across the globe anywhere. Wireless networking enables easy and faster access to the internet wirelessly and proving greater amount of security and flexibility of roaming. Earlier it was just one computer in one house, but presently every home has at least 3 computers. The increasing use of computers is very high. What will happen if there is a situation where no more instruments can connect to internet? To prevent this situation, came the IPv6 protocol a successor to the existing IPv4 internet protocol. With the current protocol, it is predicted that ip4 address space allocated is shrinking and will be left with no more space to connect a new device. It is just not possible for devices to automatically be compatible with the new technology. Hence certain validation and verification technique is introduced to test the devices to be compatible with IPv6. TAHI test tool is one identified test procedure which has been recognized by the Government of United States to certify devices that support IPv6. This project talks about the importance of Tahi test, building test systems for networking devices. Another important part of this project is to perform automation using scripting languages.
