IPv6 Bites...

Since my talk on IPv6, it has since come to my attention that IPv6 is in the top 5 urgent agenda list for President Obama's incoming Commerce Secretary. The details are all over the internet even if you do not search very hard. One such article can be found on http://tiny.cc/FINMg It seems the ongoing concern is that someone out there will be issued the last remaining IPv4 address sometime in the next 3 years...

Despite all this, our latest internet link is about to be implemented with good old IPv4. I made the enquiry on whether we can get IPv6 details for this connection. The response?

"We're also in the process of moving to IPv6 ourselves, sorry for any inconvenience."

Nice to know we are not alone...
