IPv6 / NAT

2001-02-15 Thread Kyle Lussier
he difference in this suggestion from NATs is that it should be logical and defined on IPv6 requiring no actual translation. In summary, IPv6 should support absolute addressing as well as relative addressing, and even indexed addressing as primitive IPv6 operations. Kyle Lussier www.AutoNOC.com

thing I always hated about certification/conformance, blah blah, is that it imposes a static, fixed cost on all parties and isn't issue driven. I like this idea, because you pay your $100, you get improved product marketability in return, and it is totally problem or issue driven, as opposed to a static/fixed cost being eaten by all vendors, good or bad.
