What is IPv6?

The Brief

IPv6 is the evolutionary version of the Internet Protocol (IP) reviewed in IETF standards committees to replace IP version 4. IPv6 is designed to allow the Internet to grow steadily, both in terms of the number of hosts connected and the total amount of data traffic transmitted. IPv6 is being phased in throughout the world in stages and will eventually (within a decade or so) fully replace IPv4.
