SNI; RFC 3546 > How fast could it be deployed? The RFC is just shy of 10 years old, so that's like a baby compared to IPv6. It is mostly deployed, but there's still a fair number of old clients that don't support it. WinXP+IE is probably the biggest fail, followed by Android < 3.0 and BlackBerry. -- Chris Adams <cmad...@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
