Implementing IPv6
Faulkner, March 2003, Pages: 9
The next generation of Internet Protocol standards is IPv6, designed to alleviate the crunch for IP addresses by expanding from 32- to 128-bit IP addresses. IPv6 also provides the capability for multicasting, a important feature of IP-based services. It is well suited for 'always-on' environments, wireless data services, and emerging applications such as Internet-enabled personal digital assistants (PDAs), home area networks (HANs), Web-connected automobiles, and integrated telephony services. However, careful planning is required to ensure its successful implementation.
