Abstract
Techniques for structuring IP version 6 (IPv6) addresses into bit fields to embed language localization and services information (e.g., and/or other attributes/information) are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system/process/computer program product for structuring IPv6 addresses into bit fields to embed language localization and services information includes allocating a configurable portion of an IP version 6 (IPv6) address for a subnet, wherein the subnet includes information that is associated with a geographical location (geolocation); and determining an attribute for a new session based on the subnet.
