And QoS and IPv6.

It's coming.



Sorry for the off-topic, but this is interesting.

Yesterday i was discussing this issue (ipv6 QoS with a friend), mainly who
and how will manage "IP flows". The standard is great and it allows
priorities and such (meaning that livestreams should be prioritized over
file transfers, for example). And that's a great feature to have in your
intranet where you can control your routers and such but, how about internet
traffic? Internet providers could just give priority to who pays the most,
so perhaps your sever is sending a high priority datagram but in the client
area it's being stopped just because your client's neighbourg pays a higher
fee to his provider.

On the other hand nobody stops you to build a file transfer app (say p2p)
wich packets are sent as high prority, so if every single packet in the net
has the same priority it's back to same situation we have here.

Discuss freely ;)
