What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6?
An IP address is the address of a device on a network. IPv4 uses four number groups and is running out of addresses; IPv6 is the newer standard with a practically unlimited address space.
What does this mean for you?
For most users the transition happens invisibly, but for business networks a good configuration matters — for security and reachability alike.
