I was told that there were agreements in place.
But yes, it's a race. If it were up to me, IPv4 would be reserved for services, and all end user customer traffic would move to IPv6. But that's just my own pet thoughts on the matter, and does not in any way reflect Microsoft policy.

Yes, I'm aware that is a different /8 held by HMG, however, given the lack of supply and the increasing demand for IPv4 addresses, it is most likely not particularly prudent to assume any IPv4 block (or part of a block) will not be announced at some point in the future (particularly a block held by a government, given their interests is increasing revenues without raising taxes). > But reconfiguring 16,222,216 network devices takes time. > The solution, of course, is IPv6. It's a race! Regards, -drc (speaking only for myself)
