"We" forgot to ask if all the stakeholders wanted it solved. Most self-styled "enterprise" operators don't: they want a major control point at the network border. Deliberately breaking end to end makes that control more certain. Which is why they deployed IPv4 NAT boxen long before address scarcity became an impactful issue. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
