The End is Near, but is IPv6?
Topic: High Tech Developments 7:28 am EDT, Aug 26, 2008

As of this blog posting, exactly 900 days remain until the end of the Internet, or at least the exhaustion of IPv4 registry allocations. And you don’t have to take my word for it, even the normally staid London Times and Fox News proclaimed, “Internet meltdown ... The world is heading for a digital doomsday”.

Heady stuff.

Of course, IPv6 (or the new IPv4) was supposed to take care of all of this — billions of billions of new IP addresses, hardened security built in from the start, and an elegant new architecture to replace all of IPv4’s hacks.

So what happened to IPv6?

The End is Near, but is IPv6?
