The old version of the Internet Protocol, IPv4, has been such a success that we are now faced with a shortage of available addresses. This has the effect of heavily penalising new entrants as well as other players who no longer have enough IPv4 addresses. Maintaining IPv4 is also proving more and more costly for businesses.
It is therefore advisable to migrate to the new version of the protocol (IPv6) in order to manage a scalable and extensible pool of IP addresses.
