Spread Spectrum IP Addressing - SOURCE Address Field ROTATED|shifted? Left 2 Bits

2012-03-03 Thread Guru NANOG
Common Misconception With Spread Spectrum IP Addressing the 32-bit Source Address Field is Shifted LEFT 2-bits by the originator of the packet. That Folds the IPv4 Legacy Address Space into 1/4th tsize table The lost 2-bits are stored in the Right-Most 2 bits of the 32-bit field and in other pla

Common Misconception - IPv4 is Out of Address Space NANOG Operational TTL Alert for 160-bit Headers (aka IPv4) The 8-bit TTL field is reduced to 4-bits plus two 11 bits stuck at 1 for a long time The new 8-bit fields are: SD11 Packets without the 11 will enter Deep Packet Inspection process

Evil Bit and Spread Spectrum IP Addressing - NANOG Source Address Shaping

2012-03-04 Thread Guru NANOG
Common Misconception: One additional bit of IPv4 Addressing will solve world hunger The Evil Bit (or spare unused bit) can be used to store (restore) one bit The Left-Most bit of the 32-bit Source Address Field can be SET to Zero no matter what the original value. The Evil bit can be set IFF the
