RE: [ipv6-wg] 2006 IPv4 Address Use Report
Hey there Ray! Are these actually statistics or parameters, and are either available at this time for IPv6 and IPv4? I would be interested in seeing them, especially would like to update my view of how IPv6 is being utilized at this time. Thanks, Tanya

Hi Tanya, Each of the RIRs publishes statistics everyday regarding their allocations/assignments. These are rather straight forward reports of activity. The RIRs do not publish any analysis this information but rather provide the raw data in a common format that can be used by anyone in the global community to do research and analysis. I was merely suggesting that since there seemed to be a discussion and inferences occurring that it might be interesting to look at a couple of different views.

I would think that an interesting statistic to look at would be the consumption rates by region and by the top 10 economy/country consumers in both IPv4 and IPv6. I would also look at the percentage of the allocated IPv6 resources by region and by the top 10 economy/country consumers.

Is the decrease in the percentage of used IPv4 space in the United States of America due to other countries increasing their usage and/ or the return of unused IPv4 space in the United States of America? Just looking at upcoming usage statistics globally.
A year ago, the US held 1324.93 million addresses out of a total of 2238.04 million = 59.2% (apparently I rounded off incorrectly with my 60% figure).
Yesterday's total is 2407.11 so for the US to maintain its 59.2% it would have to hold 1425 million addresses, which is an increase of exactly 100 million addresses. But the US didn't get 100 million addresses last year, but "only" 41.66 million for a total of 1366.53 (56.8%).
So the US keeps growing, and still uses up a quarter of the new addresses given out in 2006, but the rest of the world grows faster so the US lead is diminishing.
