Twenty million now. The site is not to be taken seriously, it has nothing to do with available IP addresses.The number is going up? 16 mil right now.
But they're allocated out of already assigned blocks, so there is no impact.hey, don't forget that a lot of IPs are allocated dynamically![]()
They can ping the class c's and take back anything that's not active. I have ISP's that have multiple class c's and they must be active to keep them.And the last blocks have been allocated. This just showed up on Slashdot:
http://tech.slashdot.org/story/11/02/01/0036227/Last-Available-IPv4-Blocks-Allocated
"Following on from APNIC's earlier assessment that they would need to request the last available /8 blocks, they have now been allocated 39/8 and 106/8, triggering ARIN's final distribution of blocks to the RIRs. According to the release, 'APNIC expects normal allocations to continue for a further three to six months.'"
I think it's pretty lame that we've gotten to this point. It's not like it's a surprise this was coming, and yet just about everyone responsible has ignored it completely. That's people for you.
Anything that's not active ... like in Egypt![]()
see post #6 :tongue2:
I have to say, my first reaction was still... well... that's why we have IPv6! I'm glad Evo was there... I would have been confuuuuuuused otherwise.
So...what happened to IPv5?
So...what happened to IPv5?
2 pages, and you're the first person with the um... well (not balls)... "ovarian fortitude" to ask that very obvious question! I think you should get a confetti shower and cash prizes now.![]()
they were obviously just trying to sync up with IE 6. so might as well skip to IPv8 now.
