Objectives: IPv6 is to be used largely in the growing internetworks. At present IPv4 is used extensively. Migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 is a challenge, considering many factors like hardware, applications and networks reach ability. This paper explains the drawbacks of IPv4, advantages of IPv6 and migration techniques to IPv6.

Methods/Analysis: GNS3 is a networking simulator. Using this simulation tools, network topologies can be built, and the routers can be configured. Using this GNS3 simulation tool, two topologies are built with IPv4 and IPv6 to coexist, and only IPv4 networks between two IPv6 networks.

Results/Findings: The appropriate migration techniques, dual stack and tunneling were configured in the routers and end results of reach ability were tested.

Applications: IPv6 can be used in many applications like IoT, vehicle tracking, automatic maintenance of building, in health care, remote monitoring, etc.
