  • Most of us get  confused about phrases like internet protocol, IPv6 and IPv4. These are two different versions of internet protocols, as we all are aware of.
    Ipv4 is the first version of internet protocol and IPv6 is more technologically advanced version. There are many differences between IPv4 and IPv6 such as size of the addresses, that is IPv6 is 128-bit while IPv4 has 32-bit addresses, Topology Drawings, Configuration etc. There are many helpful articles which helps you know well about the differences between IPv4 and IPv6

  • ipv6 is the newest and complex ip address type.
    It contains more ip adresses than ipv4.
    To accomodate Internet of Things (IOT) ipv6 has to come in

  • IPV4 - 32 BIT IP AND IPV6- 128 BIT IP IPV4 - SECURELESS AND IPV6 - BUILD SECURITY PATCH

  • IPv6 is the latest version of Internet Protocol system. It helps identify different devices across the net. To make communication possible across the internet, each device is assigned an IP address.
    IPv4 supported address size of 32-bits, but with the growing demand of internet and personal devices, need of more addresses have emerged.
    IPv6 uses 128-bit address size. It uses 4 hexadecimal digits, divided into 8 groups with help of colons. But transition to this new version is met with resistance.
    IPv6 has not completely replaced IPv4, which means both systems will co-exist.
    This can considerable increase the operational cost. Since IPv4 has not completely stop functioning, convincing organizations or people to migrate or sell their IPs can be difficult.
    Even though IPv6 is a new technology with much potential, organizations have their uncertainties regarding the change.IPv4 Vs IPv6—Pros and Cons

  • Ip adrress is the logical adress. it is of 2 versions i.e, ipv4 and ipv6. IPV4 : ip version 4 has 32 bit of address IPV6 : ip version 6 has 128 bit of address

  • he Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) is a protocol for use on packet-switched Link Layer networks (e.g. Ethernet).  IPv4 provides an addressing capability of approximately 4.3 billion addresses.
    The Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is more advanced and has better features compared to IPv4.  It has the capability to provide an infinite number of addresses.  It is replacing IPv4 to accommodate the growing number of networks worldwide and help solve the IP address exhaustion problem.
    One of the differences between IPv4 and IPv6 is the appearance of the IP addresses.  IPv4 uses four 1 byte decimal numbers, separated by a dot (i.e. 192.168.1.1), while IPv6 uses hexadecimal numbers that are separated by colons (i.e. fe80::d4a8:6435:d2d8:d9f3b11).

  • In simple language most of our device's use ipv4 but from the past many years many electronic devices are built that can support both ipv4 as well as ipv6.
    ipv6 was discovered in 1992 but we are not able to use it yet because their are devices in which their is only ipv4 compatibility so these devices will be just crap if we use ipv6.But in future we will use ipv6.ipv6 has 1000 times more IP'S  than the ipv4. So this is the main difference.

  • An IP addres is binary numbers but can be stored as text for human readers.  For example, a 32-bit numeric address (IPv4) is written in decimal as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 1.160.10.240 could be an IP address.
    IPv6 addresses are 128-bit IP address written in hexadecimal and separated by colons. An example IPv6 address could be written like this: 3ffe:1900:4545:3:200:f8ff:fe21:67cf.
