ip address dsnt take much into account actually when it comes to web.. they can make it as long as they want to but as long as there is a domain to cloak it, it wouldnt be a problem, i think..

now now now…. hahahahaha! You’ve insulted me on the other post just because of my simple comparison between 1st yr nurse students. Now you.. YES YOU! You can’t even understand how important an IP address is. Just imagine a 128bit IP address… oh wait… you don’t know that. >_

It will complement IPv4, you can run them hand in hand with each other. You can do dual-stack or native.

Just got to have the guts to start it out, it just needs proper planning and testing of all equipments if it is IPv6 ready.

You also need not memorize the IPv6 address space, unless you want to lose more hair.

there is still time to find ways in solving this problem

The problem with IPv6 is that it was designed to replace and not to complement the existing IPv4. I am not out of my mind to replace my existing network.

During the boom of the Internet, they have already seen the depletion of the IPv4 address space. During those times, they’re using classful allocations to ISP, this is a very wasteful practice. As a temporary solution to the problem, they introduced CIDR or Classless Inter-Domain Routing. They also devised Network Address Translation to further retard the depletion of the space. Right now, a lot of our IPv4 is still reserved by IANA and will probably be put to use in the near future. NAT is good but it doesn’t provide end to end connectivity per se and gives problems to applications such as VoIP.

There’s no need to worry for now, but eventually, migration will start slowly. Here in the Philippines, DOST-ASTI, Mozcom, PLDT, Globe and BayanTel already has IPv6 allocations from the APNIC registry. It will still take time before most of these providers will offer commercial quality IPv6 to it’s subscribers.

Cheers!
