DESCRIPTION

This business briefing discussion focuses on: What is this new IPv6 everyone is talking about? What new features is IPv6 going to give us? Technically, IPv6 offers very little that IPv4 cannot do presently. However, it does offer your business a chance for continual growth and expansion into areas that are developing rapidly, and a chance to have a business edge on some of your competitors.
