With IPv6 becoming more prevalent in cloud provider and consumer access networks, you may already be on the path to IPv6 deployment with your network and applications.
If you are looking to understand IPv6 in your environment there are three things you should be monitoring:. ThousandEyes has support for IPv6 so that organizations can utilize IPv6 across all of their test types web, network, voice, routing and agent types cloud, enterprise, endpoint. ThousandEyes Cloud Agent support for IPv6 is provided on six continents allowing global coverage for organizations. Enterprise Agents can have both addresses assigned and executes tests based on a user-defined preference for only IPv4, only IPv6 or a preference for IPv6.

This section describes IPv4 addresses. The IPv4 address is a bit number that uniquely identifies a network interface on a machine. An IPv4 address is typically written in decimal digits, formatted as four 8-bit fields that are separated by periods.
An IP address internet protocol address is a numerical representation that uniquely identifies a specific interface on the network. Addresses in IPv4 are bits long. This allows for a maximum of 4,,, 2 32 unique addresses. Addresses in IPv6 are bits, which allows for 3. The total usable address pool of both versions is reduced by various reserved addresses and other considerations.
IP addresses are binary numbers but are typically expressed in decimal form IPv4 or hexadecimal form IPv6 to make reading and using them easier for humans. IP stands for Internet Protocol and describes a set of standards and requirements for creating and transmitting data packets, or datagrams, across networks.
IP is traditionally used in conjunction with a higher-level protocol, most notably TCP. IP is designed to work over a dynamic network. This means that IP must work without a central directory or monitor, and that it cannot rely upon specific links or nodes existing. IP is a connectionless protocol that is datagram-oriented. Combined, these factors make IP an unreliable, best effort delivery protocol.
Error correction is handled by upper level protocols instead. The original IPv4 protocol is still used today on both the internet, and many corporate networks. However, the IPv4 protocol only allowed for 2 32 addresses. This, coupled with how addresses were allocated, led to a situation where there would not be enough unique addresses for all devices connected to the internet.
This upgrade substantially increased the available address space and allowed for 2 addresses. In addition, there were changes to improve the efficiency of IP packet headers, as well as improvements to routing and security. IPv4 addresses are actually bit binary numbers, consisting of the two subaddresses identifiers mentioned above which, respectively, identify the network and the host to the network, with an imaginary boundary separating the two.
An IP address is, as such, generally shown as 4 octets of numbers from represented in decimal form instead of binary form. For example, the address The binary number is important because that will determine which class of network the IP address belongs to. An IPv4 address is typically expressed in dotted-decimal notation, with every eight bits octet represented by a number from one to , each separated by a dot. An example IPv4 address would look like this:. IPv4 addresses are composed of two parts.
The first numbers in the address specify the network, while the latter numbers specify the specific host. A subnet mask specifies which part of an address is the network part, and which part addresses the specific host. A packet with a destination address that is not on the same network as the source address will be forwarded, or routed, to the appropriate network.
Once on the correct network, the host part of the address determines which interface the packet gets delivered to.
