Abstract
This thesis aims to transition the network infrastructure of Astro Baltics from IPv4 to IPv6 based on the specifics of the company. IPv6 is the successor of IPv4 that offers better security, is faster, and more futureproof as it provides more addresses to use. The topic is relevant because many are switching from IPv4 to IPv6 technology as it is considered a more modern protocol. Before the transition, everything must be prepared and tested to keep downtime to services as low as possible. For a growing company, it is better to do it as soon
as possible rather than later because the more extensive and complex the network gets, the harder it is to transition later. The thesis will give a brief overview of IPv6 and IPv6 transition methods. As a result of this thesis, Astro Baltics will receive an implementation plan and start using IPv6.
