Hi Owen, I bet you're wrong about that. I've been doing experiments with using ephemeral aggregated address hierarchies instead of routing. That's about as radical a change as changes get. No surprise that TCP fails, DNS blows up and the static subnet is rendered obsolete. One of the surprises was that IPv6 itself, the layer 3 protocol, works as well as anything new that could be designed. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin ................
