Getting to know IPv6

Now that World IPv6 Day is behind us, we can all take comfort in the fact that the Internet didnt collapse when major companies including Google, Facebook and Yahoo! enabled IPv6 on their main URLs for 24 hours.

For the next few years (or decades?) there will be a transition period when both IPv4 and IPv6 will be used on the Internet. While the share of IPv6 traffic is currently tiny, it is growing rapidly, and soon, some users will only have IPv6 addresses. For companies that deliver content over the Internet (many local broadcasters), now is the time to begin implementing IPv6 on their website servers.
