The same question is also true for the number of networks. This is the biggest lie of IPv6. The routing table will not get smaller and will gain the same exponential growth that IPv4 has now. If the world would be all IPv6 you would need at least 4 times as much memory on your routes. Most probably you need to replace most because their CAMs are to small or the ASICs do not support IPv6. -- :wq Claudio _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
