Our FREE Consultation can help you get ready for IPv6!

On Monday, January 31st, 2011, the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) allocated the last two non-reserved blocks of Internet Address space, heralding the forthcoming end of IP address space as we know it.

Depletion of IPv4 address space will reach a critical stage later this year when ISPs who still have reserves begin to run out.

What can you do TODAY?

The first step is a quick review of your existing networking infrastructure to see what is and what is not IPv6 compatible, so you can begin to plan and budget appropriately for the next few years.

Next, make sure that anything you're buying or implementing new fully supports IPv6.

Third, put a plan in place to make your critical services accessible from IPv6 connected hosts on the Internet.

Finally, put a plan in place to make sure your users can access IPv6-only Internet resources. This is a long term project, which is all the more reason to start soon.
