The World Wide Web will be disrupted globally on Wednesday as the world Internet bodies plan to test run the new Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6).
The Internet Protocol is the address of a device used in connecting to the Internet and it represents the technology powering the Internet.
It only recognises the IP address in providing access to the Internet and the entire global has been using the IPv4 until it numbers were recently exhausted.
The development reinforces the need to migrate to the IPv6, which had been developed as the next generation IP, address standard intended to supplement and eventually replace the IPv4 protocol that most Internet services use today.
