hey
ipv6.0 is the new protocol just like ipv4.0 that we are
using currently..just because we have almost run out of ip
public addresses..they have come up with the new
addressing pattern ..right the ip addresses are in the
form 202.164.101.139...in ipv6.0 they will be in the form
21DA
3:0:2F3B:2AA:FF:FE28:9C5A so that we have like
zillions of ip addresses...
for example :
you will have an ip address for your fridge wherein it
will check what stuff you require in the fridge and if its
not there it will ping the server ip that is the grocery
store and they will come n refill it !!! ( now isnt that
amazing ?? )
ok i tried to explain as per my best knowledge..this is
just 1% of what really is ipv6.0...but u can always
checkout more at :
