You said the e-mail was from VZ wireless but the e-mail text says Verizon. Is 
it really all of Verizon, VZ Wireless, home, business or some combination?

Thought the list would find this interesting.  Just received an email from VZ 
wireless that they’re going to stop selling static IPv4 for wireless 
subscribers in June.  That should make for some interesting support calls on 
the broadband/fios side; one half of the company is forcing ipv6, the other 
can’t provide it.  At least now we have a big name forcing the issue though.

Here’s complete text:

On June 30, 2017, Verizon will stop issuing new Public Static IPv4 addresses 
due to a shortage of available addresses. Customers that currently have active 
Public Static IPv4 addresses will retain those addresses, and Verizon will 
continue to fully support existing Public Static IPv4 addresses. In order to 
reserve new IP addresses, your company will need to convert to the Persistent 
Prefix IPv6 requirements and implement new Verizon-certified IPv6 devices.





Why should you make the move to Persistent Prefix IPv6?





•

Unlike IPv4, which is limited to a 32-bit prefix, Persistent Prefix IPv6 has 
128-bit addressing scheme, which aligns to current international agreements and 
standards.



•

Persistent Prefix IPv6 will provide the device with an IP address unique to 
that device that will remain with that device until the address is relinquished 
by the user (i.e., when the user moves the device off the Verizon Wireless 
network).



•

IPv4-only devices are not compatible with Persistent Prefix IPv6 addresses.
