IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a 128-bit addressing system designed to replace IPv4 and support a vast number of unique addresses.
Elaboration:
- Supports trillions of unique IP addresses.
- Uses hexadecimal notation (
2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334
). - Provides better security and faster routing.
Example:
A typical IPv6 address looks like this:
2001:0db8:85a3::8a2e:0370:7334
Most modern devices and ISPs now support IPv6.
