Ipv6 to arrive by 2011 or bust

Time to get moving

A DRAFT PLAN for the rollout of Ipv6 has called for everyone to have all Internet-facing servers running on the standard by January 1, 2011.

According to Slashdot, engineer and author John Curran suggests that migration should happen in three stages. Between now and 2008 organisations should start to run IPv6 servers for non-production work.

Between 2009 and 2010, organisations would offer IPv6 for Internet-facing servers, which could be used as production servers by outside parties. By 2011, IPv6 must be in use by public-facing server and Ipv4 must be switched off.

Curran is only one bloke but he does cut a bit of ice in the North American Network Operators' Group (NANOG). Whether or not anyone will listen is another matter.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
