For the effective functioning of devices on the internet, there needs to be an IP address. IP addresses are identifiers of devices on the network. There have been several versions of the Internet protocol addressing system beginning from IPv0 to IPv6. IPv0 to IPv3 were unassigned. To set regulations for computer networks operating on the idea of data exchange, the well-known IPv4 was created in 1983. The IPv6 is a 128-bit addressing scheme with the following features: auto and renumbering address configuration, end-to-end connection integrity, an inbuilt security feature called IPSEC, address configuration in hexadecimal, fragmentation is only performed by the sender, encryption, and authentication are additional features. These characteristics add complexity to IPv6 and make its implementation challenging. With all of these readily available, it follows that Kenyan technology's infrastructure and resources are lacking. The technical readiness of ISPs, network operators, and service providers is a critical variable. The availability of IPv6-compatible infrastructure, network equipment, and software are necessary to successfully adopt IPv6. This research analyzed the state of IPv6 technology implementation and the readiness of the Kenyan financial industry in the adoption of IPv6 technology in terms of; the network protocols in place, mobility management protocols, and configuration models in place. The researcher undertook descriptive research on ABSA Bank Nairobi Branch for the study. The research involved IT administrators, IT engineers, and the IT support staff which is approximated to be 100. According to Yamane’s formula for estimating sample size the sample size of this research will be 67 IT professionals. A Questionnaire and an interview guide were used for data collection. Statistical packages for social sciences was used for data analysis
