'''[[.versicherung]]''' is a new [[gTLD]] delegated in [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]] on 22 May 2014. It is managed by the Dotversicherung-registry gmbh, with back-end registry services provided by [[RegistryASP]].
     −
Versicherung is a German word meaning "insurance". The TLD was created for the use in the insurance industries in Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland.

'''[[IPv6]] (Internet Protocol Version 6)''' is the version of [[Internet protocol]] which supports the 128-bit [[IP Address|IP addresses]]. It has been developed as the next generation protocol to increase the 4 billion IP Addresses available and it will eventually replace the nearly exhausted [[IPv4]], which supports 32-bit address space.<ref>[http://www.iana.org/about/glossary/ www.iana,org]</ref> IPv6 has been developed to provide advantages over the current internet protocol. It is expected to solve several network problems by eliminating the need for Network Address Translation (NAT).
   −
The initiative to develop the .versicherung domain name space was led by Matthias Pfeifer and Managing Director [[Axel Schwiersch]].
+
As early as 1990, internet experts predicted that the 4 billion available IP addresses under the IPv4 were not enough to accommodate the rapid growth of internet users worldwide. This expansion signaled a great problem, which meant deciding whether to limit the size and growth rate of the Internet or to disrupt the network by changing to new strategies or technology.
 
  −
Their will be an international auction for [[.versicherung]] held on 26 August 2015. The auction will be conducted by [[Right of the Dot]] and Heritage Auctions.
