Hi Folks,
I don't have extensive technical experience, so i hope you'll bear with me.
I am using a virtual server right now, and will need to set up a dedicated
server on a server farm in the next 6 months. I am setting up a group of
70-100 sites on this server with different domain names for each one. Some
will share IP #'s, and others will have their own.
I am wondering what implications IPV6 will have for the existing domain name
structure on the name level ? My research suggests that it won't affecting
the technical and political aspects of the name structure, but someone has
suggested to me that it might. If i understand correctly, IPV6 is very much
about having a huge increase in the # of IP numbers, and how different fixed
and mobile devices could use them.
More specifically, will IPV6 provide some solution that will eliminate using
. dot syntax when users are trying to hit a specific site when they manually
type in it's address? I've thought about this considerably, and i can't see
how more ip numbers would do this.
Specifically, after widespread implementation, i am wondering if there's
some way IPV6 would eliminate the notion of the distinctiveness of domains
like Sex.com Sex.Net Sex.org ? As far as i understand, this syntax is
necessary, in order to allow for different sites to be called Sex ... and
then exist under different suffixes.
One of my concerns is that my company sees our domain names as part of the
value of the projects we are building and would want to know well in advance
if IPV6 might have some radical effect on how naming occurs.
I've got a meeting in 24 hours about this particular issue, so if any of you
have clear answers to these questions, i'd really appreciate it.
(links to documents on the web would be helpful too.)
thanks,
Josh Melamed
