GEOGRAPHICAL LEVEL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF IP ADDRESSING- IPV4 VS IPV6

Internet protocol is one of the main communication protocols used by social networks. It is used to connect different devices to the network otherwise communication is not possible. Recently, an existing online version of the Internet such as IPv4 has been experiencing address fatigue. However, this problem can be solved with a next-generation internet protocol such as the IPv6 version. Moreover, both processes are incompatible. But after implementing certain transformation processes, these processes can be combined. There are various conversion processes available such as Dual stack, Tunneling, Network Address Translation etc. that define the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 environment. In this study, the effectiveness of the Dual Stack switching strategy is analyzed by a different network size. In addition, another network topology has also adopted design for network design. Extensive tests are being performed to test network performance by changing its size. The conclusions of this study will support business and organizational levels who are obliged to use certain technologies to complete their online business activities. In addition, the priorities following the migration of organizations from IPv4 to IPV6 are also emphasized
