Even if it was only 127.0.0.0/8, it would only delay the inevitable. IPv4 simply cannot meet the needs of today, let alone the future. The more people try to dream up schemes to extend IPv4, the worse the problem will get. Move to IPv6. I have!
It is not our decision to make. It is our providers (the ISPs) who must make that move.
No, it is yours. Don't use your ISP-IPv6-reluctance for any delay on your side. Around the net you can find reports that failure to provide IPv6 will be a reason for ISP's to go bust. Are you willing to wait for that to happen? And then be forced to move to another ISP? In the mean time, use a tunnelbroker, while you can not get native-IPv6. I use HE (tunnelbroker.net, but there are others) in the mean time. My provider has started to give V6-addresses for those who want it, but i seriously think of sticking to my independant-tunnel-provider, instead of going native. My /48 is now independant of my isp,and i can switch to another isp without any re-numbering, Just adjusting my tunnel setup. hw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
