Don't forget things like the containers full of suitcase that they load into airplanes. Or packing crates full of produce stored in a warehouse, moved into a shipping container, loaded on a truck, transferred to a ship, transferred to a train, loaded on another truck, and unloaded in another warehouse cooler. Or medical devices with built-in computers somewhat analogous to car engine computers, i.e. an insulin drip device which needs to be docked at the pharmacy for data analysis before they refill the insulin tank. Basically, IPv6 will be used for stuff which was sci-fi a few years ago, not just the same old things as IPv4. --Michael Dillon -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [email protected] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
