 IPv6 has several service types, or "modes" it can use. Some service types partly depend on IPv4 services. Others run independently of IPv4. Ask your Internet provider or search the web to find which type your provider uses. IPv6 has several service types, or "modes" it can use. Some service types partly depend on IPv4 services.
