In general the IPv6 tests should be performed by all network providers, however the test range should fit their needs. It causes that test range for small network operators \(offering basic set of services\) could be limited in comparison to larger ISPs. In this paper, we propose an approach to IPv6 tests with regard to IPv6 deployment by small operators. We present tools and specifications for IPv6 tests and propose a test platform optimized to small ISP’s needs. The test platform is a dedicated LiveCD distribution based on FreeBSD operating system with IPv6 test environment and set of pre\-defined tests. An advantage of this solution is the ability to launch the test tool software on any computer equipped with an Ethernet card and CD\-ROM\/DVD\-ROM drive. LiveCD test tool allows users to execute tests and analyze the results in graphical environment.We believe that this approach will help to simplify and shorten the IPv6 testing process in small ISP’s networks."]
