What is IPv6?
• IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6".
• IPv6 was created to address the additional IP addresses that will be needed as the Internet continues to expand.
• IPv6 is expected to gradually replace IPv4, with the 2 coexisting for a number of years during a transition period.
