Cisco introduces its Carrier-Grade IPv6 solution to address the rapid exhaustion of IPv4 addresses amid increasing internet-enabled devices. This transition to IPv6 is necessary for unrestricted growth, enabling vast opportunities in areas like smart grids and cloud computing, while preserving existing IPv4 investments. Major stakeholders globally emphasize the importance of a smooth and systematic transition to IPv6 to avoid hindering internet growth.
