The assigning IP addresses is fine with IP6. But right now the internet is running on IP4. Does anyone know when the change from 4 to 6 is going to occur or is it going to be a gradual rollout? Hmm, Sounds almost like Intel's serial # on their chips. What's the difference between a serial number and an IP address! If the IP address is embedded into the product then it's the same. I've read that everyone on the planet could have their own IP address with IP6. Maybe someday your IP address will be your phone number all rolled up into one.
