IPv6 firm to set up Philippine software hub

04.07.2006

IPv6 is a new standard that supports the requirement for more IP addresses as more devices such as mobile phones and even home appliances connect to the Internet. The advent of wireless broadband also allows ubiquitous access to Internet.

Innofone.com claims to be one of few companies dedicated to IPv6. It provides IPv6 training and consultancy services and also distributes IPv6 hardware such as routers and security appliances, the latter supported by application development.

The company recently announced its acquisition of InfoWeapons, which makes IPv6 network equipment and operates an R&D unit in Cebu City in the South.
