The people giving them out are the same lot as giving ipv4 addreses namely arin, ripe, apnic, lanic (put www before and.net after each).
Part of the advantage of ipv6 is you can get your own portable network assignment. where current networks are aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd ipv6 addresses are aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:gggg:hhhh currently globally routable / assigned ones start 2001::.... The cool part is you can get an assignment like gggg:hhhh (which is the size of 10.0.0.0/8 (about 16.5 million addresses) ) which is portable aka you can take it to different isp's. They just handle the routing for the bits before.
As for having to remember / hand them out. Well the ipv6 ip's are typically based on MAC address (hardware address) that is built into your computer. I'd expect every home router would have radvd (router advertising demon) on it, just like all of them have dhcp on them these days.
That has struck me as funny. You're given the right to refuse to answer a question (but you can't use it as part of your defence later at trial). In short the right to NOT incriminate yourself, but it's illegal to refuse to hand over encryption keys.
I wonder if anyone has tried to argue the point, after all they are covering the same topic.
Not to mention the whole guilty until proven innocent aspect of it
Over 3 servers I already get 5 ssh brute force attacks or portscans origionating from within china PER DAY. About 75% I can't even find sufficent details within apnic to complain.
I don't see these problems disappearing all because more hosts would be able to connect
You're looking at the wrong end of the problem. Sure a firewall will prevent unwanted traffic entering and/or leaving my network, it will not however stop a DDoS from multiple remote sources saturating my network connection. Combine that with joe sixpack who's knowledge of firewalls is probably less than their knowledge of applying security patches / service packs etc, and maybe you'll see why I laugh at your "Why don't you just fix it by using a real firewall?". It's not me using a firewall, It's not the few computer literate people using firewalls, it's the vast bulk of people who know nothing about computers or embeded network connected devices who's computers are already causing problems.
How long after we get ipv6 will we start having worms etc attacking people's networked xbox, etc ?
Our ADSL service is IPv6 enabled; all customers will get a single static IPv6 address allocated to them by default if their equipment can support it. We can also allocate a/48 of IPv6 address space if a customer wishes to deploy it on their internal network.
Sounds like by default they will give a/128 (note I'm not affiliated with them in any way, but saw the link on another post to this topic)
I didn't interpret it that way... key works "LIR or its supordinate ISPs". Sounds like they just want the ISP to keep accurate records that they can present to the registry as justification for its allocated address space. They already have to do that with IPv4 space anyway if they want portable allocations directly from the registry (which most sizable ISPs do).
Even for non-portable address allocations you need to fill out the paperwork if you're assigning address blocks. My point is still that if an ISP has to fill out extra paperwork then they will charge for it. I've worked for an ISP and know how difficult it can be to get customers to fill out the forms even when their business depends on it. For this reason I doubt any home users would get a/48 unless they paid extra. So I'd argue good isp's would give out a/64 (it's the best of both worlds, no paperwork, while providing for multiple devices)
As for the/128 address block. yes, the ISP is playing games, but that being said talk to most isp's and they will either want to charge you extra (and then assign extra IP's on the same connection), or flat out say no, 1 connection = 1 computer. Many have similar clauses in the T&C's
Read the standards and allocation policies for IPv6. The minimum amount of address space that the registry expects any end subscriber to get from the ISP is a/48 or/64 at a minimum. Given that fact, it will be quite easy for an ISP to justify a mere 800,000 addresses.
That's funny from the link you provided I read the line /128 when it is absolutely known that one and only one device is connecting.
I'd say that almost all current ISP's would sell that as a standard home user address allocation, and charge for anything bigger similar to what they do already.
Additionally also stated
However, all/48 assignments to end sites are required to be registered either by the LIR or its subordinate ISPs in such a way that the RIR/NIR can properly evaluate the HD-Ratio when a subsequent allocation becomes necessary.
This translates to all/48's must be registered address spaces. eg apnic, arin etc needs to be notified of the end user / end company it is assigned to. From that extra volume of work I'd have to say ho home user would ever get that without paying for it.
I feel I must point out your link was to apnic.net (asia pacific region), NOT ARIN (which most follow) or equivilent links to RIPE etc.
With IPV6 no NAT is needed, and in fact they could probably find a way to disallow all NAT within the country
I see that as one of th big disadvantages of IPv6. Most isp's are reluctant to give static addresses, let alone subnets to customers. Almost always they cost extra. (atleast for home users).
Now you have an addressing method that gives out subnets by default AND makes all devices directly accessable. Just think of the numbers of extra insecure boxes that will be dumped onto the net with this.
Now not only will you have almost every hone PC, but almost every office pc as a potential zombie.
I'll stick with IPv4 for as long as I can just to avoid those two problems thanks all the same
Memory is the other thing they are trying to sort out. Or more specifically registers so instead of storing the results from an instruction in a loop while a different instruction executes, then having to access the registers to get the stored data, they execute the instructions as soon as the inputs are ready. so reducing the register (internal memory) count.
When they do that, there are a while chunk of transistors which can now be removed from the design, or used for computation instead of storage
The thing that's new (if you read the article) is the instructions AREN'T executed specifically in a parallel fashon. They are executed in a JIT (just in time) fashon. currently with deep pipelines results can get stored in registers for a few cycles. this aims to execute instructions as soon as it can. That way it's needing alot less registers to store results.
It's also meaning instructions are executed out of order AND in parallel in an effort to both increase speed and decrease chip complexity. If you don't have to use a transistor for storage / control, you can use it for the good bits, generating your answer.
It also brings up the question of What happens to the RIAA when the judges friends / family have been sue'd by the RIAA. If they continue they will reach a point where the legal system will turn against them.
While generally I'd agree with that statement for ANY product (not just apple). I would have to say that you can't really consider the current scratch problem to fall within that. After all they have had the iPod range for a few years now.
In the UK at least I'm sure apple will either have to recall the product or face alot of legal action. After all the UK consumer guarantee act states that any consumer product MUST be fit for purpose for a reasonable time. I'm sure most Magistrates (refused warranty claims typically don't need to go before a fully qualified judge) would agree that this product should last general wear and tear for at least 2 years, battery excluded probably 5. If the screens are failing (due to scratches through normal use) within a month or two then that is a SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW
We all know what the real reason is. Someone can't find any of "the good stuff". So now they have the FBI looking for it all. FBI siezes a copy and passes the most deviant on to higher up's who eventually pass it on to those who helped get them into office.
Who elsewould like to see 10 billion taken out of that moon landing money and put towards a few swarms probes to Titan to confirm this.
I'm sure more people would agree if you said take 10Bn from the military instead.
The hard copy could easily be the inlay card. Most CD's have them. So there you've got a very short paper / thin cardboard document, but you're not about to print reams of paper (the content of the CD).
Anyway if you want the content to last have any text aspects in ascii, and pictures in an uncompressed bitmap format. Probably also a good idea to include a program that can display the pics with instructions on what sort of computer & OS it ran on (they might be able to find an old emulator).
How about if it's hollow and you can't touch the 'sky' ? eg the 'sky' is 25M above or too hot / cold / electrified. Ok so you might be able to touch it, but it would be bad for your health
How about adding "must be in a solar orbit and not have other planets / asteroids on a very similar solar orbital path" Probably with something about it's mass not reguarly (or within an orbit) changing more than a certain %.
And for the songs you can't get a CD copy, There's always faking an email from the various online music stores. Eg Allofmp3 as much as people love / hate it, and as much as the RIAA have tried to have it shutdown, there are countried that reluctantly admit it is legal.
I think more so. Not only should they be forced to publish spec's. They should also be forces to keep those published spec's the same (or atleast compatable) over different versions atleast minor versions.
A new major version can have a new (published) spec.
The MS guy told me they are trying to make management as easy as possible for servers containing thousands of seperate sites. He also said they hope to release IIS7 for Win2003 R2.
Puts on asbestos oversuit. Hundreds, ok, yes a few hundred. Thousand or thousands. Yea right.
Sorry but windows has too much overhead esp. with all the bits they try to add from frontpage to asp.net. Someone has got to be smoking somethign really strong if they think they can get 1k+ sites on a windows box.
As for the this allows a website owner to configure their own website Can anyone say.htaccess ?
