IPv6 and the Next Generation Internet Protocol Overview
Overview The Internet is huge; it is ubiquitous. It has become a truly massive entity. The Internet is also in constant motion, growing and expanding at an unpredictable rate and in numerous technical directions. This growth is fueled by the world's insatiable demand for instantaneous information, entertainment, and communication. Left unchecked, this growth will continue to transform the once manageable Internet into an endless labyrinth of networks and computers. Yet, unchecked it remains. In fact, the advent of cellular Internet services will greatly exacerbate this problem. The potential infusion of half-a-billion new mobile Internet devices will finally break the current paradigm. This white paper discusses IPv6 testing and the future of the Internet and provides an overview of the protocol. IPv6 is designed, first and foremost, for scalability.
