Business value

The adoption of IPv6 in Business Central helps to ensure uninterrupted service, improved security, and scalability in the future as the number of internet-connected devices continues to grow and IPv4 addresses become less available.

Feature details

The supply of IPv4 addresses is limited and will eventually run out. So, starting in 2024 wave 2, Business Central supports IPv6 addresses. The transition to IPv6 not only ensures seamless connectivity for your environments but also enhances the security of your data with IPv6’s built-in security protocols. More importantly, this update prepares your environments for the future as the world moves towards widespread IPv6 adoption.
