forget Pv1,2,3 and 5 theres no point going down that road.

"what would the next big thing be?"

getting IPv6 out there first! .. getting everyone to agree to use it , including countries ... IPv6 isn't that new !!!

"(or any other generic free video sharing site) videos?"

best one I have seen is the one from the google conference that i posted here. (ill find it for you)

I would also point that MS have their MS'ified Pv6 standards, it may be slightly different on other platforms e.g. number of IPv6 addresses each client has for one. There's also tech such as DHCPv6 which still allows admins to statefully assign addresses if they wish instead of auto-configuration, in fact cisco backs this. In fact many IPv4 services have been updated for IPv6.

There are also problems that still need addressing, such as p2p and streaming style services which may have to use a more expensive client server models.

All devices will probably have a simple address as a factory defualt to configure eg ::1

Also IPv6 has LLMNR (link local multicast name resolution) which allows you to give devices friendly names its like a peer to peer version of DNS/host file.

So if your IPv6 router has LLMNR, you could login set its name as "router" and local all devices will atomatically be able to resolve its name "router".

Stuff on internet and large networks will still use DNS

"Pv6 address as an IPv4 one"

There a few ways to gateway IPv4 and IPv6 as yet there is no offical standard.
A special version of NAT is one option.

MS as has special addresses which are made from IPv4 and IPv6, however, i belive this is for support on local networks where programs use IPv4 via MS apis and dont use IPv6 yet

""""" its call embeding i belive

eg 222.1.41.90 = 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:222.1.41.90

I belive the way MS have done it you'll have double stack and your IPv4 address will be made into yet another IPv6 IP like the one above. This is IPv4 over IPv6

Like i said ipv6 over ip4 you could use a gatway or use tunnel between sites or devices over ipv4 (this is how most brokers work effectively its a tunnel to a large sperate IPv6 network joining everyone together, this is the way it have to be on the net until everyone moves over to fill the voids)

It is just in the lower resolution podcast, subscribe to Itidiots (mp4/ipod)

anyone know any other podcasts, i think itidiots has pretty much had it for the time being.

if it was more of a community then there would be new content between episodes.
I would love to help, i have lots of ideas, but i get the impression that they don't want it.

Yes it was rude of Jamie "the thread killer" ;-)

cough...sod off jam.. cough

> "When IPv4 was designed most of networks had just few nodes, low bandwidth, high latency, and high error rates."

Actually IPv4 was in use before the standard was officially released so to speak and which probably stumped its features. At the Google IPv6 Conference in 2008 members of the original IPv4 team stated that 32bit addressing was only chosen for prototyping and research, and that they were actually looking at much larger addressing and even variable length addressing for the final IPv4 standard. So they didn't expect people to start using it in a production environments like they did at that stage of development.

IPv6 has been around for well over 20 years! even Microsoft released stacks and development code as early as 1998. Standardising is the lengthy process.

The first IPv6 standard was released in 1998, however, as you can see from the Google IPv6 Conference in 2008 there is still some argument on how to implement it and refine it.
