SureHosting reaches Hurricane Electric "Sage" IPv6 Certification

IPv6 or IP version 6 is the next generation Internet protocol which will eventually replace the current protocol IPv4. IPv6 has a number of improvements and simplifications when compared to IPv4. The primary difference is that IPv6 uses 128 bit addresses as compared to the 32 bit addresses used with IPv4. Among other things, this improvement is expected to make assigning address to wireless devices easier and accommodate the myriad smart network enabled devices that will surround us in the future.

IPv6 and IPv4 will coexist on the Internet for quite a while. Currently some of the IPv6 Internet exists as tunnels over the existing IPv4 Internet.

SureHosting reaching "Sage" status with Hurricaine Electric's IPv6 certification is one more step SureHosting has taken to continue its commitment to IPv6 support for its customers.
