IPv6: The Next Generation Protocol is a complete overview of IPv6 and begins by covering such topics as header format, extensions, addressing, and routing. Once the overview of the protocol is explained, the book moves on to take a look at several implementations involving both the host and router.

The book also covers the overall addressing architecture that IPv6 has to offer, including management, format, and identifies its interfaces with link local addressing. The book then discusses more specific ideas regarding header compression and packet tunneling to provide a more practical representation of IPv6.
The last sections are more advanced, and discuss such topics as the transmission of IPv6 packets over IPv4 networks, security architecture, different protocols such as DHCPv6, and programming interfaces. The book concludes by discussing the transmission of IPv6 packets over Ethernet, FDDI, Token Ring, ARCnet, PPP, and NBMA networks to round out the versatility and functionality of IPv6 in a real world environment.
