IPv6 and Infranets

Overview Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) plays a key role in this transformation. Increasing address size from 32 bits to 128 bits for a total of 3.4 x 1038 addresses IPv6 ensures that infranets can be expanded both logically and geographically. IPv4's current allocation, in contrast, has made it difficult for service providers and large companies, particularly international ones, to obtain efficient address blocks. That has led to a reliance on NAT (Network Address Translation), which often adds complexity and constrains applications.
