Tech News World : Get Ready to Kiss IPv4 Goodbye: Q&A With ICSA Labs' Guy Snyder, Part 1 & 2

"Pressure to implement IPv6 is coming from both public and private sectors. "Based on these statistics, we can look out into the future and say pretty much for sure these are going to go away within the next 10 to 12 months, at least by the end of next year," said Guy Snyder, secure communications program manager at ICSA Labs." ~Richard Adhikari

"The concern regarding the Internet's dwindling supply of IPv4 addresses isn't new. Now, however, the bells are ringing again in the push toward IPv6. "Today the number shows 234 days remaining [for IPv4], and it shows 181 million IPv4 addresses remaining, and it's going down constantly. It shows 5 percent of those addresses are left," said Guy Snyder, the secure communications program manager at ICSA Labs." ~Richard Adhikari

This is a good sign that we are actually moving forward in the technology department. Our president either is tech savvy or has some intelligent people at the helm in this department. I know that this will make some of the things I use now obsolete, but I understand that this is necessary. We all buy new equipment as we need it, I just hope the people higher up give us a heads up similar to the one with all TV going digital.
