    2.3 Next generation: IPv6

        2.3.1 Aim of IPv6 from multimedia point of view

Evolution in both datacom and telecom seem to lead to convergence. In the future, there will no longer be this idea of separate systems to convey text data and real-time data. Networks will convey information. That is the reason why Internet Protocol evolved to this sixth version. It is supposed to conciliate the wills of both datacommunication and telecommunication networks. That is, using a packet routing protocol that is able to discriminate different data streams to forward first those that cannot undergo any delay.

        2.3.2 Why is IPv6 more efficient than IPv4?
