The agency that oversees Internet addresses has begun delivery of the last packet of addresses with IPv4 protocol. The IANA his remaining seven parcels (each with 16,777,216 addresses.) Both the requested and were sent to the Asia-Pacific, one of five areas in which we organize the division of the same.
IANA's commitment was that when there are only five would be distributed automatically to each of the regions and not in accordance with requests received, to prevent address the increased demand in some areas, such as Europe-Middle East or North America, disadvantageous Africa or Latin America-Caribbean.
After receiving the last packet, the real exhaustion of addresses with this protocol will occur on different dates by region. Europe, for example, may run out of IPv4 addresses in August-September this year. Happen in Africa in 2014. Some counters opened in Internet advertising is hardly more than a million addresses to attribute.
Although the information is not accurate, it is certain that urges the transition to another protocol, IPv6. The difference is substantial. IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses and has the capacity to generate 4.294 million unique addresses. The jump to IPv6, where addresses are 128 bits, can have about 340 sextillion.
Now the two protocols co-exist, but the transition is slow. In addition, IPv6 offers many technical advantages, from security to faster, in the management of addresses and allow each machine has its own and is directly connected to the network in the so-called Internet of Things. Upon delivery to the last address of IPv4, what will happen? "This is not to be a collapse.
There will be two different internet access from IPv4 because those who can not enjoy new services and applications more complex, technically demanding connections" end to end, "said Jordi Palet, director of Consulintel and operating committee member of the IPv6 Task Force. To give an alarm on the need for agile transition to IPv6, large Internet sites like Google, Yahoo and Facebook have joined the World Day to be held IPv6 June 8.
That day, their servers work with IPv6 as a priority so that Internet access provider which still works only with the old protocol POSE have difficulty accessing certain services. Yahoo Palet said, has calculated than 1% (1,000,000) of Internet users who attend its services can have serious problems.
The Internet home is not who should take the initiative for change. The operating systems already support IPv6 router and may continue to operate. The task of transition lies with the ISPs. There will be a day that new customers can only receive IPv6 addresses. Access providers should be prepared, therefore, to manage and, by so-called tunneling systems, making feasible the communication between these two types of protocols that coexist a long season.
The problem is that the machines are ready for IPv6 networks but, no. For example in mobile telephony.
