Re: Question on transition strategy
One way could be to use a proxy service. This would provide an IPv6 address for an IPv4 address. Basically you would make a query to the server and it would take care of connecting to the site and sending you back the result. The proxy server would have to be connected to both and IPv4 and an IPv6 network.
Another possibility is that by this time the bell has struck and the news sites are all over themselves announcing the last IPv4 block has been allocated. The result being they are telling everyone that they should be looking to get an IPv6 address and anyone ISP who hasn't already planned to support IPv6 is in panic mode. It is for reasons like this that I feel ISPs should be allowing small number of customers to be beta testing IPv6, so they don't have any surprises when the crunch time comes.
Something else worth checking is if any programs that you use aren't IPv6 ready. If they aren't you should contact the author. |
