Overview:

The vast majority of networks today, including the Internet, are based on the Internet Protocol, version 4 (IPv4) protocol. Developed over 25 years ago, IPv4 is showing its age. Its 32-bit addressing cannot accommodate the explosive growth worldwide of network-connected devices, particularly in Asia and China. It is estimated that the world may run out of IP addresses as early as 2010-2013. Moreover, IPv4 was not designed with security in mind and its security solutions have not kept pace with the expanding requirements of IP-based networks. These deficiencies are addressed by IPv6. Dell is quickly moving to meet DoD requirements, as well as those of the customers in Asia and the rest of the world.
