Works out to 150 million IP's for each person to ever be recorded living on the Earth.


No more IPv4 addresses

 

[Trotter]

Yay?

Actually, this will completely screw TF's current IP ban list. HOPEFULLY Larry and Baez can work out how to implement the new way soon. It will make my job a lot easier when they do... but only after the country lists have been updated for IPv6.

 

[Kharn]

Yea this will screw over alot of ban lists, and it futz with my current project.

So in the future when i want to join a Battlefield 4 server by IP i'm going to have to type something like 3ffe:1900:4545:3:200:f8ff:fe21:67cf ?

 

[Kharn]

Admittedly 3ffe:1900:4545:3:200:f8ff:fe21:67cf it's not as memorable as 74.205.45.101, I think lots of games or client / server applications will start using domain names.

When the switch to ipv6 comes, i'm just going to quit using computers.

 

[kmote]

Luckily for you, I think I last saw the adoption rate of IP6 at 0.05%.

 

[C0RR0SIVE]

Gah, I hate the idea of IPv6, it will screw with my project sooo much, the sad thing is, my ISP has given me 3 freaking addresses, two different IPv4 addresses, and a single IPv6 address, not sure why, nor how the modem handles such a thing.

 

[Abstract Hero]

Is there an IPv6 crash course? I don't know this jargon.
