Introduction<\/strong> :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Internet Protocol (IP) is the communications protocol that routes traffic across the internet. IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) currently carries the vast majority of internet traffic. a shortage of IPv4 addresses exists because IPv4 only allows approximately four billion addresses. Prices for dedicated IPv4 addresses have risen due to this shortage, and the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) requires justification and audits of IPv4 addresses to avoid waste. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) addresses the problem of IPv4 address exhaustion because the limit to the number of IPv6 addresses is exponentially higher than the IPv4 limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
