With the exhaustion of the address space, provided by IPv4 protocol, the transition to IPv6 gets particularly important for the organizations. With the transition to IPv6 the organizations will use the new opportunities, which will lead to benefits for businesses. The Migration to IPv6 will solve the problems faced by organizations when using IPv4: insufficient address space, wrong address space, the international problem of allocating addresses, problems with security, mobility, etc. The transition is difficult to accomplish at once, because it affects the entire network infrastructure – all the network devices and software applications that manage them. In this study, based on practical and applied approach, we have developed a methodology in steps and stages that must be completed in order to implement the migration to IPv6. Also the problems that may arise in planning this transition are examined.
