<div>
	All devices that are connected to an internet connection have a unique IP address which means there&rsquo;s a need of billions of IP addresses. This requirement is fulfilled by the new IP version IPv6.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	There are two IP versions: IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is the older version which has a space of over 4 billion IP addresses. However, the new IPv6 version can provide up to trillions of IP addresses to fulfill the need of all internet users and devices.</div>
<div>

<div>
	The IPv4 version used to configure IP addresses in numerical value (numbers) which may conflict with other IP addresses. That&rsquo;s why IPv6 adopted the hexadecimal method to provide unique IP addresses to billions of users in the world.</div>
