China deploys Internet protocol version 9 network
Hello, Have you heard of IPv9? or it was IPv8? China's Internet technology Ipv9,which being compatible with IPv4 and IPv6,has been formally adapted and popularized into the civil and commercial sector. http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2004-07/05/content_1572719.htm Thanks, -J __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

IPv9 is the TUBA protocol - RFC 10xx - from the last century. :) This is a modification that uses the 10digit telephone#. Tony Hain refered to this as "e164-like". Others have less complementary things to say. --bill

"So far, China is the only country in the world that has consolidated domain names, IP addresses and MAC addresses into ten-digit text files." So they have a nationalized MAC registry? Scary...

Seems like China has nothing at all but a few people in China know the power of marketing... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/07/06/ipv9_hype_dismissed/ . . . Professor Hualin Qian of the Computer Network Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences described IPv9 as a research project that turned out to have serious practical shortcomings and little support. . . . 'nuff said... --Michael Dillon
Professor Hualin Qian of the Computer Network Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences
I was a guest at CNNIC/CAS in Beijing twice in 2001, where I met Hualin, and see him from time to time at ICANN functions. The address space allocated to China is less than what MIT has, and the necessity, let alone the utility, of forcing encoding into ASCII (any algorithm), and forcing encoding from a particular profoundly broken glyph catalogue (without intermediate mappings), for written Chinese in a specific byte-indifferent standard network infrastructure application, is not helpful for Chinese network users. So yeah, NAT-on-a-China-scale is something reasonable to look into, as is rational relief from, or useful accomodation to, the other problem. Existance of well-known problems however, does not prove necessity, or utility, let alone implementation and adoption of, a particular claim to a solution. Eric
