It has to catch on doesn't it? Do we have a choice? I mean we are nearing half utilization of ipv4 space. (granted a lot is being wasted through various misconfigured networks or address space that is no longer needed)
But honestly... What happens when every person in the world has 2-3 ip addresses for themselves? My isp will hand me one for my home network. My cell phone carrier will assign me one so I can stay connected when I am away. My SUV certainly needs one...I mean how else I am to send email in an efficient manner from my laptop? How on earth are my kinds going to be able to play quake on long road trips? On that note, will my laptop have a wireless nic in it? Well it seemingly would have to in order for me to maximize my own personal utilization. In that respect, ipv4 is already dead. Is it not? What other choices are there? Unless every service we subscribe to is based on PAT, we're screwed... heaven forbid I'm ssh'd int my network via my phone/pda and the translation table gets cleared!.. BOY will I be upset! :) -Patrick >>> "Priscilla Oppenheimer" 04/30/02 09:21PM >>> At 04:45 PM 4/30/02, Michael L.

The book won't cover IPv6 in detail though. Although it might seem like I'm a big proponent of it, I'm not really sure it will catch on. >>>>>>>>>>>>> Confidentiality Disclaimer <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This email and any files transmitted with it may contain confidential and /or proprietary information in the possession of WellStar Health System, Inc.
