Recently, there started an ongoing discussion within the Internet Society regarding the evolution from IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) to IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6).
Because we did not get authorization to share the discussion or mention any names, we will simply state facts:
1) IPv4 equals 4,294,967,296 Internet protocol addresses or Unique Identifiers when the Internet concept began to develop.
2) Over time, IPv4 Internet protocol addresses or Unique Identifiers became used up. Thus, there was a need for more Unique Identifiers. Then, IPv6 was introduced.
3) IPv6 equals 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 Internet protocol addresses or Unique Identifiers.
4) Currently, there are roughly 7 Billion people in the World. It is estimated now that 3.5 Billion people utilize a cellular phone. Most cell phones today have Internet access.
5) There are many devices now then ever before that connect to the Internet and require an Internet protocol address or unique identifier to do so.
6) The Internet today, plays a major role in politics, the economy and technically how a lot of machinery works.
7) The Internet Society's " What We Do " is an excellent source of Information regarding Information Technology.
