What is IPv6?

IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6".

IPv6 was created to address the additional IP addresses that will be needed as the Internet continues to expand.

IPv6 is expected to gradually replace IPv4, with the 2 coexisting for a number of years during a transition period.

Though most ISPs (Internet Service Providers) do not yet support IPv6, many local networks already use it. When your ISP supports IPv6, your Panasonic Network Camera Management System will be ready!
