Largest IPv6 backbone expands leadership role to legacy IPv4 Internet Protocol and is now connected to the most networks in both protocols globally.
Hurricane Electric has announced that it is the first network in the world to connect to over 5,000 IPv4 networks, establishing itself as the most connected IPv4 network in addition to its position as the most connected IPv6 network.
The impressive growth in the number of networks that Hurricane Electric has connected to can be traced to its global strategy of expanding to more countries and cities in order to provide existing customers with more direct routes while reaching new customers. As Hurricane Electric continues to extend its network throughout the world, it will strengthen its newly attained position as the most connected IPv4 network while boosting its long-held role as the most connected IPv6 network, providing robust support for the next billion people coming online. During the remainder of the year, Hurricane Electric will continue to make additional investments in its network in strategic locations across the globe.
