What's Your Timeline for IPv6 Migration?

Posted by Cliff on Monday May 5, 2003 @11:35AM from the as-networks-evolve dept.

SgtChaireBourne asks: "IPv4 has, over the last 20 years, seen unexpectedly wide adoption. During this time it's proven to be both flexible and robust, but also several problems, though once small, have grown. IPv6 looks to solve some scalability problems, add needed privacy and authentication mechanisms, address quality of service, and provide better routing and addressing capabilities. What kind of timeline does your site/institution/business have for rolling out IPv6 and how?" Those interested in IPv6 migration may also be interested in this article, from a year ago.

I'm waiting for IPv7, which is being designed by Microsoft. Current features include:

Microsoft's control over any machine using IPv7
Microsoft's ability to update the machine with whatever they want
BONUS FEATURE
The ablity for the RIAA to delete any files on the computer's hard drive.
