Re: ip 6 questions
said by Jeebus Juice  :in ip 6 since every item has an ip address what happens to the routing protocols like BGP since no more subnetting are the routing tables gonna list every ip? Quite the opposite, there will be a lot less routes in the global routing table due to much better aggregation of routes. Rather then a large ISP having a lot of blocks they'll have 1 - 2 large blocks of v6 addresses. Lots of information on this out on the net and a lot of people already using v6 day to day. IMO most residential US ISP's won't start pushing v6 out to the users until either they can't get v4 addresses or when some sites become v6 only. |
