Topic > IPv4 Case Study - 1021

Because we are running out of IPv4 addresses, in the future some websites will keep only IPv6 and the Internet will become a dual IPv4/IPv6 network. This means that in order for a user to connect with your customers, colleagues, users and ensure that your website remains easy to reach for all Internet users, especially in growing markets; you need to make sure you have IPv6 too. And that your network and IT staff are aware and prepared for the change. Time is running out. There will still be IPv4 addresses in 2020 or even longer and devices using those addresses will continue to operate at the same time but in an improved IPv6 version. It will be difficult and expensive for operators to obtain new IPv4 addresses to expand their networks, while the cost of supervising existing IPv4 also increases. That's why big companies like Facebook, Bing and Google will be faced with the end-user dilemma, because sooner or later they too will have to buy new servers. It is known that some major Internet companies have said that users will not be affected at this time. But the circumstances may not remain the same. The end user may find it difficult to reach some sites and email addresses if they only use IPv6 and the user's service provider only has IPv4 addresses. Taking care of this problem now is the best proactive approach you could ask for. One solution is for providers to organize centralized network address translators that allow ISPs to "dual-stack" new consumers with a public IPv6 address and a private IPv4 address. The other alternative is to use a protocol translator (NAT64) that allows IPv6-only equipment to communicate with IPv4-only equipment. Neither technology… half paper… from one computer to another via the Internet will be worth an estimated $25 billion nationwide over the next 25 years. Hardware and software expenses are expected to be lower for most Internet users as changes in knowledge are implemented in products such as Microsoft Windows and Linux User System. This is not a single company, this is a nationwide estimated price. Starting the IPv6 transition is critical. It is estimated that by March 2015 all IPv4 addresses will have sold the majority of addresses. Why wait until the last minute to make the transition. Start now, pay now, train now. Our company would profit greatly in the future if we were proactive now. Pay now, when everyone else is scrambling to complete the big transition to a newer version and going through problems, PPS Medical should and will be bug-free and open for business.
