Re: The Mathematical Reality of IP Addressin in IPv4...

Yes, but (unfortunately) the success of the failure of this approach 
depends more from the client's software (and can be successfull if this 
can be hidden by the TCP/IP stack and prevent re-writing the client's 
software) and less from the RFC itself. Through I meant something like 
virtual host defined as _IP address, port shift_ pair.

Anyway, no one approach is used widely now.
