IPv6 deployment in your organization

[ad_1]

All available IPv4 addresses were completely used and sold out several years ago. However, IPv4 addressing continues to still be used today because of something called Network Address Translation (NAT). This enables an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to issue an IPv4 address to a company or individual, and then within that company’s network through NAT, the single address is shared so that all devices inside the network have their own unique addresses (which are not broadcast on the Internet), and share the external address given to the company by the ISP. IPv6 was created to provide a much larger range of addresses so that we would never (theoretically) run out of addresses again and so that each individual connected device would have its own unique address. While IPv6 addressing is in use, most systems are not set up to use it exclusively (or really at all). If most companies are still using IPv4, why is it important to understand IPv6? What is the current status of IPv6 deployment in your organization?
