So what %-age of traffic across major backbones is now IPv6?
^^^^^
From what I've read, it's about the same size as the IPv4 in 1992
I don't think so... unless you meant 'total number of packets', not
'percentage' (as I asked).
The point is that backbone traffic is still mostly IPv4 - and with the IPv4
address space runout in only a few months, that's unlikely to change
substantially between now and then. So whatever's going to happen when IPv4
addresses run out, a mass conversion of traffic to IPv6 probably isn't it.
I think the demise of IPv4 will be a lot like the demise of BITNET.
