IPV6
IP version 6 (IPv6) was developed to overcome the limitations of the current
standard, IP version 4 (IPv4).
IPv4 allows end systems to communicate and
forms the foundation of the Internet as we know it today.
However, one of the major shortcomings of IPv4 is its limited amount of address
space.
The explosion of new IP-enabled devices and the growth of
undeveloped regions have fueled the need for more addresses.
In the United States, the Department of Defense (DoD) is a primary driver for
the adoption of IPv6.
The other main market opportunities are the National
Research and Education Network (NREN), government agencies, enterprises,
service providers, home networking, consumer appliances, distributed online
gaming, and wireless services.
This module provides an overview of IPv6, IPv6 addressing and routing,
OSPFv3, and IPv4 to IPv6 translation.
