Digging around on the web I've found: http://blog.jgc.org/2012/09/the-uk-has-entire-unused-ipv4-8-that-is.html ...which suggests that it's 51.0.0.0/8 that is up for grabs. I remember a few years ago there being a bunch of "countdown to doomsday"-type blogposts and articles re: the underadoption of IPv6 and the expected fatal pressure on the declining resource of IPv4; now I'm seeing a lot of 6 in mobile, loads of NAT, and folk seem far less petrified of the future? -a On 13 March 2015 at 20:23, Christopher Morrow <morrowc.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Fri, Mar 13, 2015 at 3:30 PM, <valdis.kletni...@vt.edu> wrote: > > On Fri, 13 Mar 2015 18:46:31 -0000, Alec Muffett said: > > > >> > IPv4 Market Group, a global leader in IPv4 sales, has just announced > the > >> > availability of up to 2.6 million top quality IPv4 addresses for > purchase > > > > "top quality"? > > Graded by the Boffins. > > > Well...
