means it is difficult to rely on it, as v4 has enough dangers on its
own.
And don't forget.. Once IPv6 gets to the mainstream.. IP Reputation lists are
going to have a real fun time :) Spammers would love to see IPv6 in place I am
sure. ;) Routing IPv6 is going to require one heck of a thinking re-
adjustment. Would be nice to just leave IPv6 in the premises, and keep IPv4
for routing.
Reputation lists will just be on the /64, /56 and /48 boundaries, rather
than IPv4 /32.
