How would ILNP work with the 32 bits of IPv4 address split between
Locator and Identifier?  As far as I know, this is not documented
anywhere.



No one can do magic things, including ILNP. It is a waste of time continuing to 
debate that ILNP could do anything for solving the IPv4 scalability and 
depletion issue.
4 bytes are just 4 bytes; you cannot get more than that out of them.

Hi Ran,

I will read the paper I think you are referring to:

http://www.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/~saleem/papers/2009/milcom2009/milcom2009-abh2009.pdf

No you haven't explained anything.  You just asserted without any
explanation.  You haven't supplied an explanation yet - but you have
pointed to a paper which apparently contains an explanation.

Locator and Identifier?  As far as I know, this is not documented
anywhere.

This is not a society, but if you want your ideas to be properly
understood and respected - and if you want to find out any
shortcomings they may have - then you will debate them patiently and
in detail with people who provide critiques.  Debate involves
arguments and evidence, not unsupported assertions and casting
aspersions on other people and their supposed lack of understanding.

I will respond after I have read the above paper and after you
explain how ILNP's Locator and Identifier bit fields are implemented
in IPv4  packets. They are 64 bits each in IPv6.
