Are the apps for which IPv6 is enabled that -can not-
use address literals? If so, then Steve is wrong and
the DNS has become critical infrastructure to the working
of the Internet.
anyone who believes that the DNS is not critical infrastructure for just
about every single purpose the Internet is used for is either living in a
fantasy world or has redefined the "Internet" to be something that's
strictly at layer 3 and below.
agreed. but there's a difference between saying that DNS is critical
infrastructure and that it's appropriate to use DNS every time an address is
needed. DNS is necessary, not sufficient.
