The current IPv4 (IP version 4) standard allows for 4 billion host addresses, though estimates place the real number at closer to 250 million hosts. These 'hosts' are the address sites of devices on the Internet. With the growth of the Internet, as well as the increasing number of devices that require a host address (like wireless devices), that supply of addresses will soon be exhausted. IPv6 is quickly being considered the solution to the ever-shrinking supply of hosts. With the capability to provide a host for every proton on the earth, IPv6 not only will provide a significant increase in hosts, it probably won't need to be replaced by a more advanced IP version for a decade.

Cisco Self-Study: Implementing IPv6 Networks (IPv6) provides readers with an overview of the Cisco IP version 6 implementation. It is an in-depth technical reference for designing, configuring, deploying, and debugging IPv6 on Cisco routers. Complete with practical examples that show the real-world application of IPv6, and based on the Cisco Systems course (IPv6), this title is valuable as a stand-alone resource for understanding IPv6 or as a supplement for a networking professional attending a Cisco Learning Partner instructor-led course. With coverage of the history of IPv6, strategies for implementation and management, integration with Microsoft components and an overview of international implications, this title is the comprehensive resource for understanding this valuable and inevitable
