We've been dealing with the IPV4 myth now for over 7 years that i have followed it. It's about as valid as the exaflood myth. Part fo the reason folks aren't rushing to the V6 bandwagon is it's not needed. Stop doing the chicken little dance folks. V6 is nice and gives us tons of more addresses but I can tell you V4 is more than two years form "dying" just by seeing all the arm flailing going around.-----Original Message----- From: Larry Sheldon [mailto:LarrySheldon () cox net] Sent: Saturday, April 03, 2010 8:43 AM To: nanog () nanog org Subject: Re: legacy /8 On 4/3/2010 10:34, Michael Dillon wrote:That adoption is so low at this point really says that it hasfailed.In the real world, there is no success or failure, only next steps.

It is like skydiving and waiting too long to open the chute. Any school teaching v4 at this point other than as a legacy protocol that they teach on the second year because "they might see it in the wild" should be closed down. All new instruction that this point should begin and end with v6 with v4 as an "aside". But that isn't.
