Re: IPv6 will never fly: ARIN continues to kill it

* Mark Andrews:

It's not possible to automatically renumber firewall configurations in
different administration domains (quite deliberately so), and you
can't take your mail reputation with you (at least not completely).

      Actually it is.  You just are not willing to do it.

Our customers and business partners aren't willing to do this.  Even
"ICANN doesn't allow it" as an execuse would be essentially correct.

      It is 100% possible to do this automatically.  It just requires
      the chains of trust to be setup.

Yeah, and this chain of trust is simply not there, otherwise there
wouldn't be firewalls in the first place, just VPNs.

      Just don't say that renumbering can't be automated because
      it can.

Sure, using proprietary protocols and whatnot.  Rather Utopian if each
customer buys from a different vendor.
