CHENNAI: Sify Ltd has announced the commercial deployment of Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), the next generation IP protocol designed to replace the current IPv4.

Just as people have a unique phone number for their use, IPv6 ensures unique IP addresses.

Each address is a numerical string of a hundred numerals that is unique to every device, according to a Sify release.

This deployment would enable Sify customers to allocate unique IP addresses for all their devices with the trillions of IP addresses available under IPv6 instead of sharing IP addresses using techniques such as Network Translation, the release said.
