So, were running out of ip addresses....


We have *run out* of IPv4 addresses. All that's left now is the RIRs working inventory which will not last long. Estimates predict that;

APNIC (Asic Pacific) will run out in 3 - 4 months
RIPE (Europe, Middle East, Former Soviet Union) will run out by the end of the year
ARIN (North America) will run out early next year
AfriNIC (Africa) and LACNIC (Latin America & Caribbean) have a few years left based on their current low rate of usage

crazy, so IPv6 can hold more?


Address limits:

IPv4 = 4,294,967,296 (4.29 billion) unique combonations
IPv6 = 340,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (340 undecillion) unique combonations
