Difference between IPv4 and IPv6
In this tutorial, we learned about the differences between Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) and Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6).
An Internet Protocol address is also known as IP address. It is a numerical label which assigned to each device connected to a computer network which uses the IP for communication.IP address act as an identifier for a specific machine on a particular network. The IP address is also called IP number and internet address.
IPv4 and IPv6 are the versions of internet protocol where IPv6 is the enhanced version of IPv4.
IPv4 was the first version of IP. It was deployed for production in the ARPANET in 1983. Today it is most widely used IP version. An IPv4 address is a 32- bit binary value, which can be displayed as four decimal digits. The IPv4 address space offers about 4.3 billion addresses. Only 3.7 billion addresses can only be assigned out of 4.3 billion address. The other addresses are conserved for specific purposes such as multicasting, private address space, loopback testing, and research.IP version 4 (IPv4) uses Broadcasting for transferring packets from one computer to all computers; this probably generates problems sometimes.
IPv6 is the most recent version of the Internet Protocol. Internet Engineer Taskforce initiated it in early 1994. An IPv6 address is a 128-bit binary value, which can be displayed as 32 hexadecimal digits. Colons isolate entries in a sequence of 16-bit Hexadecimal fields. It provides 3.4 x 10^38 IP addresses. This version of IP addressing is designed to fulfill the needs of exhausting IP’s and providing sufficient addresses for future Internet growth requirements.
