The newest internet protocol (IPv6) launched today. IPv6 replaces IPv4 which will continue to be supported. IPv6 provides better efficiency and security, and solves a major problem. IPv4 only offered 4.3 billion addresses and they’ve all been used. “IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses and is capable of 340 undecillion addresses. That is 340 times 10 to the 36th power, or 340 trillion trillion trillion possible IP addresses.”
