IPv6 Supported
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed IPv4.
IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. The router is already supporting IPv6, you can use
it in IPv6 environment no need to change device. The dual-stack protocol implementation in an
operating system is a fundamental IPv4-to-IPv6 transition technology. It implements IPv4 and IPv6
protocol stacks either independently or in a hybrid form. The hybrid form is commonly implemented in
modern operating systems supporting IPv6.
