Hi Ahmed, I noticed that a number of websites that gather information about the IPv4 depletion seams to indicate quite an increase in ipv4 consumation-rate. But sofar I have not found any information on the reason for this. Do you have any ideas on this? Just the economy taking steam again? Normal groth in a number of big markets (especially China)? Or something else? Has the "big final rush" started? Or both? Cheerio! Kr. Bonne. Op 14-07-10 09:50, Ahmed Abu-Abed schreef:
Greetings,
Today the IPv4 counters show there is 1 year left for IANA IPv4 depletion date or X-Day, more details on the IPv6 Forum website.
Note that this is a conservative estimate as a few months ago the prediction was October 2011. A less conservative estimate taking into consideration exponential growth of IPv4 demand on a regional level shows April 2011 for X-Day, more at http://ipv4depletion.com/
