WASHINGTON The Internet is set for a major upgrade in the coming week. But if all goes well, users wont even know its happening.
The switch occurs at 0001 GMT Wednesday, when the Internet system shifts to a new standard that allows for trillions of IP numbers or addresses, up from the current four billion.
Known as the World IPv6 launch to geeks, the move will see Web operators and others switch permanently to the new system from the existing standard, IPv4. A test of the system was held last year.
The new standard was needed because the number of IP addresses under the old system has been exhausted.
The full transition will take several years, and old IPv4 devices and networks should continue to function as before.
Most users shouldnt notice anything, said Leo Vegoda, a numbers resources manager for the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which manages the Internet address system.
If ordinary Internet users need to know stuff, then the technology isnt right.
But Vegoda said there may be some irritations for users, as those using equipment on the old standard connect to computers and networks on the new standard.

Google has introduced a new feature for Chinese users that will pull back the curtain on Chinese Internet government censorship.
This week the search engine giant Google kept a polite smile on its face as it stuck its shiv in up to the hilt, introducing a feature to its Chinese site that tells users exactly when the censors have blocked a search word for being too sensitive.
Beijing Bureau Chief
Peter Ford is The Christian Science Monitors Beijing Bureau Chief. He covers news and features throughout China and also makes reporting trips to Japan and the Korean peninsula.
The Chinese government keeps its list of banned search terms secret; Google is now revealing them. But not once did Google Vice President Alan Eustace mention the word censorship in his blog introducing the new feature.
Instead he noted that users in China are regularly getting error messages when they search for a particular subset of queries. He mentioned the word jiang as a case in point but did not explain why such a common surname that also means river should be a banned search term.
Its because jiang is the surname of former president Jiang Zemin, about whom the censors dont want Chinese citizens to find out much because most of what is written about him on the web concerns his allegedly poor health and his role in succession struggles within the ruling Communist party.
The problem for Google users in China, and Google, is that whenever a user searched for a banned word not only would the search yield only an error message, but the connection to Google would be lost for a minute or so, which is highly inconvenient.
No wonder that Google has only 16 percent of the Chinese search engine market, way behind local competitor Baidu, with 78 percent. Baidu self-censors, so its users have no problem searching jiang. Google has refused to self censor since 2010, when it withdrew from the mainland and based itself in Hong Kong.
Googles new feature, designed, says Mr. Eustace, to help improve the search experience in mainland China, will warn users when they are searching for a banned word that will cut their connection, allowing them to re-define their searchwords.
