“It seems all the market needed was IPv4 with bigger address space. Instead of delivering it, some contraption has been created trying to solve non-existant (or already fixed) problems.” your argument against IPv6 is that they should have created a new version of IPv4, but bigger? So… IPv6? On T

I agree that parts of IPv6 design suffer from a bit of overcomplication. Maybe it didn't seem that way when they did it, but experience has taught us otherwise. So we should take those learnings and adjust. On Thu, Mar 17, 2022 at 9:27 AM wrote: > Yes, IPv6.. but for example 64bit address space
