sorry Andy but that's complete rubbish! NAT44 has been a requirement since the very notion of IPV6. - it may not be desirable but even those that rolled out IPV6 years ago will need it. the only way NAT44 would have been avoidable would have been for everyone on the planet to press the IPV6 button at the same time! the only odds longer than that happening anytime soon is Roy Hodgson being England manager in a years time!
don't get me wrong I wish I could click my fingers and we are all in V6 land but honestly, nobody needs to panic about IPV6. It'll arrive and work when needed and life will go on. to cover another point, only the crazy of crazies would think that anyone had a vested interest to slow down V6 deployment, only folks I can see are the existing RIRs and the brokers trying make some money out this situation - how bloody dare they make money! ;) cheers, Neil. (btw we made our first live VoLTE call at BT this week, oh and did you know VoLTE needs V6 to work - I can hear something ringing - no - it's not a phone - it's the killer app bell. ;) Sent from my iPad > On 4 Sep 2014, at 18:47, "Andy Davidson" <[email protected]> wrote: > > >> On 4 Sep 2014, at 15:17, Neil J.
