Özet

IPv6 has many advantages like security options and more address spaces but also has some disadvantages. Some of security vulnerabilities and lack of IP address as in IPv4 resolved in IPv6 networks. Moreover, IPv6 is not in use completely, transition to new protocol still goes on and unpredictable security vulnerabilities make new protocol disadvantageous. In this article, it will be mentioned new security options, similarities and differences between IPv4 and IPv6 networks, structure of new protocol, disadvantages of new protocol and some suggestions will be offered.
