IP Address Markets
The upcoming advent of IPv4 address exhaustion will mean a number of very interesting and mostly likely painful things about how networks are run in the future. I spoke at RIPE 55 about this; at this point in time it looks like whatever else goes on, IPv4 exhaustion will do more to sell IPv6 than a feature list ever did. Or, more pessimistically, we’ll end up in a very difficult position in almost every way you can think of.
Check out either my slides or the webcast of the talk for the details.
Oh, and I’m working on cleaning up the code, but life is getting extremely busy…
