True. And that's why we must avoid IPv6.
This is not only wrong, it makes no sense whatsoever.
So here's a question: has anyone done any musings/reasearch on how big of a global IPv6 table we could expect given current policies if IPv6 were as widely deployed and used as IPv4 (or if IPv4 didn't exist)? -- Brandon Martin
Yes… It will probably settle out somewhere around 100-125K routes. Owen
