honmau Media enables ipv6 network and supports ipv4 + ipv6 dual stack network access

Testing As ipv6 slowly began to become popular, more and more websites began to support ipv6 networks. In order to prevent some ipv6 network users from accessing websites normally,honmau MediaIPv6 support has been deployed. By then, ipv4 + ipv6 can be accessed at the same time. If your network is ipv6, it will take precedence over ipv6 network access, followed by ipv4; if your network only has ipv4, it will be accessed directly from ipv4.

IPv6 is the abbreviation of "Internet Protocol Version 6", also known as the Next Generation Internet Protocol, and is used to replace the current IPv4.

IPv4 Each user connected to the Internet must be assigned an IPv4 address, and the total number of IPv4 addresses is only about 4.3 billion. Wu Hequan, academician of China Academy of Engineering, said that as early as 2011, new IPv4 addresses around the world were exhausted.

What is the difference between ipv4 and ipv6?

The most critical difference is the number of network IP addresses that can be provided.

IPv4 is version 4 of the Internet Protocol, with an address length of 32 bits and a total of 4.3 billion IP addresses can be provided. At present, ipv4 address resources are facing exhaustion.

IPv6 is the sixth version of the Internet Protocol. The address length is 128 bits and can provide a total of 2 to the 128th power. Compared with the total ipv4 of 4.3 billion, the total number of ipv6 addresses =(4.3 billion x 4.3 billion). It is said that this can assign an IP address to every grain of sand on earth.

Benefits of ipv6 networks:

Optimization is simpler

It can provide a large amount of address space. Someone has long made this analogy. IPv6 can allocate an IP address to every grain of sand on the surface of the earth.

Faster access

The network speed has been comprehensively improved, and website visits have been faster.

data more secure

Website and server data transmission is encrypted, making website data more secure.

reduction in operating costs

IPv6 is more affordable than IPv4, reducing operating costs.
