[slovokia]

[NightspiritHacker]

I thought it was the IETF that did all this stuff.

[MichaelJFindlay]

This is quite a cool subject to be learning, currently doing it for my Degree dissertation.

WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF INTERNET!!! ANARCHY!!!!!

[SuperSeoExperts]

Epic fing interview! so darmn informed great stuff.

[sayrith]

Are organizations like these really necessary?

[Outlookhazy]

@sayrith very.

[sayrith]

@Outlookhazy but doesnt it go against the whole idea of a decentralized internet?

[Outlookhazy]

@sayrith Not at all. Think of it like phone numbers. You want to know that dialing a given number will reach a certain person and that no two people have the same one - so one or more centralized bodies sharing responsibility need to be giving out the numbers to users. The problem here is that we've run out of unique numbers. Using something called NAT people can share an IP (sort of like having telephone extensions) but with IPv6 that won't be necessary anymore.

hey stewy and brian he sounds a little like peter griffon

[rutabuga]

what he ment to say is there are. 340- undecillion, 282- decillion, 366- nonillion, 920- octillion, 938- septillion, 463- sextillion, 463- quintillion, 374- quadrillion, 607- trillion, 431- billion, 768- million, 211- thousand, and 456 IPv6 adresses.

I don't think that's enough!!!!!

[xBloodXGusherx]

Does anyone know where I can go to get a huge understanding of everything they are talking about



[mrmjordan]

@xBloodXGusherx Any computer networking book will give you in-depth information about the whole concept of networking, aka "internet". Personally I suggest this book: "Computer Networking: A Top Down Approach, byJim Kurose, Keith Ross.", it's what I studied at college.

If you're only interested in ipv4/ipv6, just Google: "why do we need ipv6" and you will find many resources that break-down this concept for non-technical-users.

Hope this help :)

[xBloodXGusherx]

@mrmjordan thanks for the post. I will check this out.

[silentfatality]

Should have asked about how many IPv4 addresses are left in our region. Thats what i want to know

[tcpnet]

Yes, this is good news.

[detroitsbest]

no more internet gaming lol

[xBloodXGusherx]

Sooo...anyone else completely lost on most of what they are talking about.
