As of this morning, IANA has allocated the last five unicast /8s, one to each RIR. There are no more. You may want to start asking your providers when they'll be fully supporting v6 addressing. |

The switch is going to hurt a lot of companies who are dependent on ipv4 tech, and either haven't upgraded or can't change the code enough to upgrade. It will be interesting. |

IPv4 32 bits. =~ 4,200,000,000 possible addressable nodes. IPv6 128 bits. =340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 nodes Quiz time. How do you ‘say’ 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 ? ( Example “768,211,456” is “seven hundred sixty eight million, two hundred eleven thousand, four hundred fifty six”) |

Now, the thing that's always kind of puzzled me is why we use the forms "bi-" and "tri-". The rest of them are the ordinal prefixes. |

Nice work! Here are some sites with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (surprisingly there are quite a few online already) CNN.com IPv4: 157.166.255.19 IPv6: 2620:100:e000::8001 google.com IPv4: 74.125.127.99 IPv6: 2001:4860:8005::68 Edit: I predict that IPv6 addresses that actually spell words will become valuable commodities in the not-too-distant future! =) Edit2: undecillion and decillion are not in the Office 2007 dictionary (everything from nonillion down is though) |

Hmm. Do you mean spell words when written in hex? Because that's not a very big useful wordspace -- only 6 letters. Or do you mean spell words when broken into 8-bit blocks and converted to ASCII? Because then, you're banking on either people knowing ASCII codes in their heads, or input vehicles (like address bars in browsers) accepting and parsing ASCII inputs in the future. |

I did some traceroutes on one of my ipv6 clients earlier, and one of the hops had :beef:cafe: as two of the hexets.. After I stopped laughing, I realized it was probably intentional... Examples of words that can be spelled with hex.. c0ffee beefcafe d00dad deadbeef |

That's pretty funny... I'm working on the IP address allocation system of a Provider edge router and by default the user context is 0xdeadbeef. It's only IPv4 for now though. |

The transition in the .mil is going to be comedey gold. It'll take 10 years or more before every DoD systems is migrated. That''l be after the rest of the world has already made the switch...

Are you sure that migrating everything is even an objective? IPv4 isn't going away. There is no reason to migrate many systems off of it. It will be around for a loooooooong time. |

Probably. You can tunnel IPv4 over v6 and there are various other ways to keep using v4. The big providers and etc will all get migrated I would imagine. |

Migrated is not the right word. Integrated perhaps. The IPv4 Internet is not going anywhere. The key is to be in both places. |

Many/Most large-scale routers sold to ISPs don't fully support IPv6 yet, so there's no way it will be adopted much until then. |

I'm not sure what you mean. Every single router on our network 'supports' v6. As do most of the other core infrastructure (load balancers, firewalls, etc...) We are still doing some validation on DNS64 and large scale NAT, but the base code is fine (for the most part). It's just working out some minor bugs and configuration issues at this point.... |

Do you support PPPoE/DHCP etc.? |
