IPv4 address to get finished in 500 days...!!!

The IP address that is used to identify computers or devices on the network is going to be finished in 5oo Days.

The IPv4 address we currently use have 4 numbers separated by dots can have numbers from 0-255
for eg:- 192.168.1.1

This IP address can have more than 1 million combination's. But with increase of devices like iphone,mobiles router's etc,these IP address are going to get finished.

No need to worry as we have IPv6 address its a 128 bit address,to employ IPv6 we need to have some changes in software.

so we will be using IPv6 addresses in years to come
Enjoy!!!
