We do not think, that _it wil be IPv6_. IPv6 is a good example of _second_ system, and do not looks as _succesfull_ for now. And it is not definitely _LAST PROTOCOL_. It _can be_ IPv6, true. But it can be other protocol (or just workaround for IPv4, as we had CIDR and CLASSLESS) instead. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregory Edigarov" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 17, 2005 3:42 AM Subject: Re: IPv6 news > > Just my 5 cents to the topic: > > Don't you all think that IPv6 would not be so neccessary for the very > long time yet, if the IPv4 allocation scheme would be done right from > the very very beginning? > If the allocation policies would be something like the ones for ASn's. > I.e. when you ask for IP space allocation you must be in the need to set > your own routing policies. > In any other cases you should use private network space with only one IP > shown outside the network.
