- · Transition mechanisms
MTCIPv6E vs Generic IPv6 training (no widely recognized cert)
| Dimension | MTCIPv6E | Generic IPv6 training (no widely recognized cert) |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | IPv6 on RouterOS: addressing, routing, firewall, transition | IPv6 theory + multi-vendor config |
| Vendor lock | MikroTik only | Vendor-neutral |
| Hands-on depth | Full dual-stack deployment on real RouterOS | Varies |
| Renewal cycle | 3 years, re-exam | Often no renewal required |
| Relevance | Growing — IPv4 exhaustion accelerating | Growing |

Real-World Application
Anonymized engagements demonstrating this expertise.
Case #1
- Situation
- ISP needed to deploy IPv6 for residential customers while maintaining full IPv4 connectivity.
- Challenge
- Legacy CPE devices, upstream provider's IPv6 prefix delegation quirks, and customers running IPv4-only services that couldn't break.
- Methodology
- Dual-stack deployment with DHCPv6-PD for customer prefix delegation, SLAAC for LAN clients, IPv6 firewall mirroring IPv4 security policy, 6rd tunnel as fallback for legacy segments.
- Result
- 60% of subscribers IPv6-enabled within 3 months. Zero IPv4 service disruption. IPv6 traffic grew to 35% of total within 6 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does MTCIPv6E certification cover?
MTCIPv6E validates IPv6 expertise on RouterOS: addressing, SLAAC, DHCPv6, dual-stack, tunneling (6to4, 6rd), IPv6 firewall, OSPFv3/BGP for IPv6, Neighbor Discovery, prefix delegation, and transition mechanisms.
How is MTCIPv6E different from generic IPv6 training?
MTCIPv6E is hands-on RouterOS implementation. You deploy dual-stack, configure IPv6 firewalls, and manage prefix delegation on real MikroTik hardware. Generic IPv6 courses are typically vendor-neutral theory.
What projects require MTCIPv6E-level expertise?
IPv6 migration planning, ISP dual-stack deployment, IPv6-only network segments, any network requiring future-proof addressing, or compliance with IPv6 mandate requirements.
How do I verify a consultant's MTCIPv6E certification?
Verify on mikrotik.com/training/certificates using the certificate ID. MTCIPv6E requires MTCNA as prerequisite.
Is MTCIPv6E certification still relevant in 2025?
Critical. IPv4 address exhaustion is accelerating. ISPs, cloud providers, and enterprises are actively deploying IPv6. MTCIPv6E ensures proper implementation on MikroTik infrastructure.
