Impressive - you have eleven networks, each with 4294311936x10 to the 32nd number of nodes? My goodness thats a lot of nodes. Bigger than the Internet, larger than the projected IoT….. And every single one of those addresses is used? I'd dearly love to see your technical deployment plan for such a huge network. Is it on file with RIPE? Or perhaps you are really only using a single digits of IPv6 address in that range of trillions of actual addresses? And you won't mind if I forge source addresses into your darkspace, just so I can hide my tracks? Thanks ever so. Pragmatically, much of the IPv6 protocol/application development has ignored half the 128bit space and treats IPv6 as a 64bit address platform. /bill -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
