An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer) participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication.[1] An IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing. Its role has been characterized as follows: "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route indicates how to get there."[2] The designers of the Internet Protocol defined an IP address as a 32-bit number[1] and this system, known as Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4), is still in use today. However, due to the enormous growth of the Internet and the predicted depletion of available addresses, a new version of IP (IPv6), using 128 bits for the address, was developed in 1995.[3] IPv6 was standardized as RFC 2460 in 1998,[4] and its deployment has been ongoing since the mid-2000s. IP addresses are binary numbers, but they are usually stored in text files and displayed in human-readable notations, such as 172.16.254.1 (for IPv4), and 2001:db8:0:1234:0:567:8:1 (for IPv6). The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) manages the IP address space allocations globally and delegates five regional Internet registries (RIRs) to allocate IP address blocks to local Internet registries (Internet...

...versus IPv4 and found that IPv6 offers many unique opportunities for increasing a network architectures efficiency and agility. In some sense, there is a competition going on between these protocols, as they are not directly compatible, and network providers and users are being forced to determine whether to support one or both protocols for various network services. The new version of IP,(i.e. IPv6), constitutes an effort to overcome the inborn limitations of IPv4, in order for the new protocol be able to respond to the new needs as they shape today in the Internet. This paper is aimed to discuss about various comparison issues when porting an IPv4 application to IPv6 with focus on issues that an application developer would face rather than a complete API reference.IPv4 is the incumbent and currently has the most widespread usage for conventional Internet applications.IPv6 is a large-scale re-design and re-engineering of IPv4, based on many lessons learned as the IPv4-based Internet grew and was used in unforeseen ways. Keywords-- IPv4, IPv6, Multicast, Quality of service (QOS), Routing. I. INTRODUCTION HE primary motivation for change arises from the limited address space. When IPV6 deployed on a large scale it has solved many current networking problems. When IP was defined , only a few computer networks has existed Then the designers decided to use 32 bits for an IP address because doing so allowed the Internet to include over a million networks. However...

...IPv4 vs. Ipv6 Internet Protocol (IP) is a set of technical rules that defines the network computer connections. There are two primary types of IP. Versions IP 4 and IP 6 IPv4 is the first version of IP to be the most used worldwide. This IP manages most of today’s internet traffic. There are over 4 billion IPv4 addresses, yet there are still not enough IP addresses for the world so something new had to be found. IPv6 is the next version of the growing and improving Internet Protocol. This was deployed in 1999. This new version meets the world’s IP addressing requirements for a very long time. The main difference between IPv4 and IPv6 are number of IP addresses each version contains. There are approximately 4,000,000,000 IP addresses in IPv4, which is 32bit. IPv6 has over 340,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 possible IP addresses because IPv6 is 128bit. Both versions work together with the Internet, but most all new IP addresses added to the Internet all come from IPv6 rather than IPv4 now because of the faster speeds and more options. IPv4 addresses are 32 bits long (4 bytes). The addresses are defined by host portion. The IP addresses are depended on address classes. In the 4,294,967,296 IPv4 addresses are available to the world; take the example IP address in the format 0000.0000.0000.0000 where each 0 could actually be a number from 0-9. IPv6 addresses are 128 bits long (16 bytes). Basic network architecture is defined as 64 bits and also hosts 64bits...

Four main versions of Server 2008 are: Windows Web Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 Standard, Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, and Windows Server 2008 Datacenter. Web Server does not support the Installation of Active Directory to make the server a domain controller. 2. Enterprise has unlimited maximum Routing and Remote Access Services (RRAS) connections, but Standard only has 250 (RRAS) connections. 3. The ram limit of the x86 architecture is 64GB. The x64 architecture ram limit is 2TB. 4. The advantages of installing Server Core is with so much of the operating system scaled down, a computer running Server Core can devote more of it’s resources to it’s server functions. What are missing are no start menu, no desktop explorer shell, no Microsoft Management console, and virtually no graphical applications. 5. You must re-arm or extend the Windows Server 2008 evaluation period without a product key. The grace period is 60 days. 6. ICT stands for Initial Configuration Tasks. Some of the ICT tasks are Set time zone, Configure networking, and Provide Name and Domain. 7. Server Manager Console is used to add a Server Role. 8.

...Protocol version four (IPv4) address space and the real difficult part is that there is no exact date. If things continue, we will have to say no for the very first time. Say no to an Internet Protocol version four (IPv4) request will be shocking to some organizations, which is why American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) is trying to get the word out now on the importance of moving to Internet Protocol version six (IPv6). The Internet Protocol version six (IPv6) address space, the next generation of Internet Protocol (IP) addressing, provides 340 trillion trillion trillion (34x10 to the 38th power) internet addresses. The question is what will happen to Internet Protocol version four (IPv4) in future? Is Internet Prorocol version four (IPv4) may be available for a longer period of time? Before further discussing the topic, we should know what is Internet Protocol (IP). Internet Protocol (IP) is a set of technical rules that defines how computers communicate over a network. Now, there are two versions of Internet Protocol (IP), there are Internet Protocol version four (IPv4) and Interner Protocol version six (IPv6). Internet Protocol version four (IPv4) was the first version of Internet Protocol (IP) to be widely used, and accounts for most of today’s Internet traffic. There are just over four billion Internet Protocol version four (IPv4) addresses. While that is a lot of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, but it is not enough to last forever.

...being used by only a few people 40 years ago, has now become the “network of networks” that has been shared by everybody and that embrace the world globally. Unfortunately there’s not much room for everyone on Internet. To solve this problem Internet Protocol is used which is basically a number allocation system that assigns a number to everyone. Every person, who will connect to the Internet or is already connected, has an IP number by default -to put it in more technical terms- has an "IP address" by default. If you’d like to have a space on Internet, the first thing you are to do is to find an IP adress from somewhere. For instance, if you are attending a University, most probably your department will assign you one. Then, how on earth your department has obtained that IP address from? Most probably, they have obtained the IP number from that university’s office for Information Technology Services. But, how did University’s Office for IT Services obtained that IP number? An institution such as a University’s IT Services Office may have obtained the IP numbers from a number of places; but, were it an IT Services Office within Turkey, most probably the numbers would be taken from RIPE. RIPE is an organisation which principally and specifically provides space on Internet to the...

...“With the growth of Internet, will IPv4 survive?” Note: Please focus on security, quality of service, and migration method. Introduction Humans are social who depend on the interaction with others for daily needs. Throughout human history, people some of them with few exceptions, have expended on the structure of various community networks for carrier, safety, food and companionship. Actually, people have been networked for a very long time. The ways in which humans interact are constantly changing. For this time being, sounds and gestures were all humans used to communicate is now replaced by the Internet which allows people share all types of communication such as documents, pictures, sound and video with billions of people near and far using computers. For the students and educational purposes the internet is widely used to gather information so as to do the research or add to the knowledge of any sort of subject they have. Even the business personals and the professions like lecturers, engineers doctors need to access the internet to filter the necessary information for their use. The internet is therefore the largest encyclopedia for everyone, in all age categories. Besides, not to forget internet is useful in providing with most of the fun these days such as games, social network service, instant messaging, networking conferences, video sharing or the online movies, songs, dramas and quizzes. In that, internet has provided people with a great opportunity to eradicate...

...Thomas Watts, PhD, CISSP Kaplan University Abstract DNS (Domain Name System) is crucial to the activity on the Internet. DNS provides components to resolve a hostname to an IP (Internet protocol) address. The resolution of a hostname occurs over a hierarchy of domain servers. These domain servers consist of name server knowledge for their explicit domain level. A section of the web address will include the domain level. DNS utilizes IP versions 4 (IPv4) and 6 (IPv6) to help resolve hostnames, and also establishes a connection between each host. The connection between the hosts will allow bits to transmit back and forth. These concepts go into more depth in this research paper. The keywords are: IPv4, IPv6, DNS, DNS hierarchy Introduction The Internet is used daily by millions people browsing the Web. Anyone who wants to look at a specific website will type an address in the browser, and a web page will display the appropriate page in the browser. This process is not possible without the utilization of DNS. DNS has a role similar to what a translation service would achieve. What specifically does DNS translate? It translates a name such as www.yahoo.com into an IP address such as 206.190.36.45. This simple function is attained because of three primary characteristics of DNS. First, the mapping of IP addresses are joined to and then referenced against a database; this is commonly known as records. Second, the database is dispensed across numerous domains, which include ISP’s...

...Assignment 9. Research Paper Introduction to IPv4 & IPv6 IPv4 is the fourth version of Internet protocol which uses 32 bit addressing whereas IPv6 is a next generation internet protocol which uses 128 bits addressing. 32 bits long (4 bytes). IPv4 is a classful logical addressing scheme using three primary address classes: Class A, Class B, and Class C. The class of the address is determined by the first number in the IP address. The total number of IPv4 addresses is 4, 294, 967,296. Address type: Unicast, multicast, and broadcast. IPv4 expressed in dotted decimal notation. The new concepts and new implementation of old concepts in IPv6 include the following: * Larger address space (128-bit vs. 32-bit) * Autoconfiguration of Internet-accessible addresses with or without DHCP (without DHCP it’s called stateless autoconfiguration) * More efficient IP header (fewer fields and no checksum) IPv4 allows 4,294,967,296 unique addresses whereas IPv6 can hold 340-undecillion (34, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000) unique IP addresses. 128 bits long (16 bytes). Basic architecture is 64 bits for the network number and 64 bits for the host number. Often, the host portion of an IPv6 address (or part of it) will be a MAC address or other interface identifier. Address type: Unicast, multicast, and broadcast and anycast. IPv6 expressed in colon hexadecimal notation. DHCP servers in Linux can be configured to use IPv6: * Step 1: configure...
