Two months after launching the main search site in the IPv6 version, Google is now officially announced that they have support IPv6. Article below is a direct translation of the announcement in the official Google blog.
We are very health internet. Recently, we are concerned that the IPv4, the address - the address used to connect computers to the Internet will run out. Predicted at this time showed that IPv4 addresses will run out of time at the end of 2011, and although some technologies such as Network Address Translation (NAT) may provide temporary solutions, they make the Internet a complex architecture and make a new application development.
Therefore we are very pleased to announce that the Google search is now available through IPv6 in ipv6.google.com (you will need IPv6 connection to access the site).
Where IPv4 provides about 4 billion IP addresses - not enough to provide a single IP address for each - the earth's population, amounting to 6 billion, IPv6 provides enough addresses to provide three billion networks to every human being on earth.
We hope to enable each computer and portable equipment in the network to be able to communicate directly - an idea called the "end to end principle" a very important design internet - IPv6 will enable the growth of the Internet continuously and allows the discovery of new applications.
With operating systems such as Windows Vista, Mac OS X and Linux providing high-quality support for IPv6, we hope that the implementation of mass IPv6 only time only. For that, we will complete our work quota.
