The paper discusses on the up coming trends and the technologies used in the Internet World. It will explore the topic on IPV6 i.e. Internet Protocol Version 6. Like its previous versions IPV6 is all set to make waves in the Internet World. Here we will see what IPV6 is, why IPV6 is selected and why we need IPV6.The paper justifies what are the problems of the current IP we are using and how it is wearing out with time and increase in number of users. In addition this will explore a bit of the history of the Internet Protocols and the forums, which are anticipating and sparing their attentions to these development. This will give a brief idea on some of the key features of IPV6 where it discusses IPV6 as a re-engineering effort against IP technology. Then it describes about some of the Objectives of this Protocol. Then explained about the headers of IPV 4 & 6.Covered next is the difference between the header schemes of the IPV4 the currently used Protocol Vs IPV6 the up-coming sensation in the Internet World. Then a brief look at what is Extension Header and its use. Security being one of the important features the Authentication Header and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) header are then explained in the topic .The world is going mobile and thus the mobile communication draws a deep attention for its Internet Development. There is a brief description about the Mobile IP and its functionalities that are very different from our Internet. Then the topic covers the Ipv6 mobility in the 2G and 3G networks in the Mobile Networks. Well you are using it then you should be aware of what are the advantages of the thing and thus here it covers the Advantages of IPV6 over IPV4. There are two sides of each coin and thus this will cover the dark sides of this Protocol in brief. The future of the Industry cannot be changed by a single Protocol all along itself and it needs some other technologies to accompany it and change the trends and traditions. One such friend of Ipv6 is Internet2, which is discussed in detail. The next of the friendly hand is the QoS or the Quality Of Service, which covers the Quality with which this data is transmitted over the network. The paper briefly discusses about the technical giants in the industry looking forward to use the technology. Then the actual or the practical implementation of this system is not very easy. We are talking about re-connecting the entire globe which already took decades for Ipv4 to establish it reign on. Then at last we end our discussion specifying the future prospects and implementations and the time left for the industrial establishment of the technology. The future developments and the area of improvements still needed till it gets fully generalized.
