Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a suite of standard protocols that is the next generation of network layer protocols for the Internet. IPv6 is a connectionless, unreliable protocol used primarily for addressing and routing packets between hosts. Connectionless means that a session is not established before exchanging data. Unreliable means that delivery is not guaranteed.

IPv6 always makes a best-effort attempt to deliver a packet. An IPv6 packet might be lost, delivered out of sequence, duplicated, or delayed. IPv6 does not attempt to recover from these types of errors. The acknowledgment of delivered packets and the recovery of lost packets are done by a higher-layer protocol, such as TCP.
