Our fundamental issue is that an IPv4 address has no real value as networks still give them away, it's pennies in your pocket. Everything of use needs to have a cost to motivate for change.

Re: How long will it take to completely get rid of IPv4 or will it happen at all?
Before that will happen. Isp's will first try cgnat and the alikes. They rather spend money on hardware supporting that then make the networks dualstack. Why? you may ask. Simple. Most customer service centers have ppl with less then basic skills. Explaining how ipv4 even looks like took them long enough. Abuse ticket systems and logparsers are probably also v4 based. And the one who wrote them, probably got fired and replaced by a younger/cheaper guy who just got out of school with no real field experience. When will the change happen then you might ask. Very simple. If the largest destinations like fb/twitter and others start to drop v4. So what we really would need is not an ipv6 day, but, you might have guessed it, an ipv6 ONLY day. On such a day, a hell of a lot isps will have their support queue overfilled with people asking why they cannot visit their favourite sites. And all the isp can say is: our network infrastructure is too old.

When you ignore the costs of maintaining an ever crumbling foundation, and just look at the cost of replacement, then you can mentally justify staying in the past. If you are honest about the TCO, and include both the wizardry created by the network masters and the difficult to quantify increased cost of all the software that has to work around that, then a cost based analysis is valid. Unfortunately there has been enough myopic focus on network-specific costs on this list that a decade has been lost that could have been used to update software and reduce the future timeframe that IPv4 needs to be supported.

A) the earths future core rotation changes altering the ionosphere in such a way that we are all exposed to continuous x-rays that shorten our lifespan OR B) the last IPv4 computer running will be reconfigured to IPv6 Thank You Bob Evans CTO At least from a large enterprise perspective, I don't really care when IPv4 is removed from that last computer. Instead, I care about how long it will take us to eliminate IPv4 from most or all of our internal network and confine its continued support to our dual-stacked public resources and legacy support at our perimeter. In particular, our plans right now focus on transitioning to a native IPv6-only wide area network providing legacy protocol support where needed using LISP. (We already have LISP configured and deployed to our largest sites.) We're in the process of ensuring all clients are dual-stacked and deploying IPv6 to internal applications. We are testing and developing a process to create IPv4 enclaves in our data centers for applications that cannot timely transition fronted by NAT64 so we can start removing IPv4 from our many smaller access network sites. It's not really our problem or concern how long some people choose to keep IPv4-only systems running, even as those systems increasingly become second-class citizens on the network. Running a large, fully dual-stacked enterprise network is overly-complex, increases costs, and imposes limitations. As time proceeds, I expect most enterprises that haven't already done so will reach a similar conclusion. I've never worked at a carrier or ISP, so I have no particular insight into the drivers pushing those sorts of networks. But the presentation by Comcast on possible plans to provide long term legacy IPv4 support as an overlay service suggest to me that the drivers are not completely dissimilar from their perspective. So it really doesn't matter that much how long IPv4 continues to exist in one sense or another. It's the tipping point where much of the Internet begins to treat it as a second-class citizen that really matters. I would suggest most people will not like ending up on the wrong side of that curve. My perspective, anyway. Scott

I agree with Tony, but at the same time, I also find myself having a hard time rendering an opinion as to timeframe. It'll probably be surprising, but as someone who joined the Internet in the 1990s when IRC was still the pinnacle of what we could do, it's hard to imagine v4 ever going away completely. Maybe a hold- over for legacy services a bit like AM or shortwave radio? Uncertain, but an intriguing thought experiment.

I see your IPX and raise you Appletalk. Appletalk was king of fill up the WAN (64k or so in those days) with just broadcast traffic.

Still stuck on that 1500byte limitation. When can we get rid of that? Speed has nothing to do with frame size. The 1500 byte limitation is more a function of the CRC algorithm. (Oh, the initial frame size was selected for 3-mbit Ethernet so that collision mitigation was reasonable.) Think about jumbo frames (9000 bytes) and their robust error detection. Research is being done in even larger frames, because the rule is that as your transmission rate increases, you should increase the frame size and use a FRC algorithm that detects all one-bit errors and most two-bit errors, at least.

This is like the switch to using MX only for email rather than MX. and A for mon MX aware systems. It will just happen and no one will notice.
