http://www.potaroo.net/ispcolumn/2003-07-v4-address-lifetime/ale.html This is actually a pretty good write-up about the IPv4 address lifetime by Geoff Huston.

Makes very good reading about all this. -- Cliff Albert | RIPE: CA3348-RIPE | https://oisec.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 6BONE: CA2-6BONE | PGP Fingerprint = 9ED4 1372 5053 937E F59D B35F 06A1 CC43 9A9B 1C5A
