IPv4 was the first protocol and is still the main one in use, but its address space is expected to be exhausted within a few years. + - IPv6 uses a 128-bit address. IPv6 succeeds IPv4, and will provide a much greater number of addresses. Based on current testing with <%=vars.product_name%> , IPv4 is generally recommended. IPv6 connections tend to take longer to form and the communication tends to be slower. Not all machines support IPv6 addressing. To use IPv6, all machines in your distributed system must support it or you will have connectivity problems.
