The IPv6 forum has given a standing ovation for the establishment of a new IPv6 initiative with the founding of the IPv6 Council Nigeria, which was formed on November 14, 2014, under the headship of Mr. Muhammed Rudman, Chief Executive Officer at Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria, also a Board member of the Nigerian Internet Registration Association (NiRA) and Mr. Chris Uwaje, Chairman of Mobile Software Solutions Limited and 2014 African Content Awardee, as the Chairman and Vice-Chairman respectively.

The Nigeria IPv6 council and its members have a key role to play in endorsing the deployment as well as synchronized uptake of the new IPv6 with support from industry, research bodies, government agencies and education, aiding equitable access to technology and knowledge.

Even though IPv4 had been available for the last two decades all over the world with remarkable success, it has shown signs of strains such as developing security apprehensions and its fast depleting IP address space.

For today’s Internet, IPv6 conserves everything in a flawless manner so far and adds more, such as seamless mobility, end to end security, an essentially limitless IP address space to link everyone and everything, new optional level of services, automated management of a network and stateless auto-configuration.
