I would like to read about a better design that should be implemented instead - can you share some links? I cannot imagine how compatibility can be achieved given that address fields in IPv4 are fixed 32-bit.
- toast0 6y agoI strongly believe IPv6 would be more fully deployed if they had only extended the address fields, and left everything else the same. Things like Neighbor Discovery Protocol don't have to exist; ARP would work fine; the protocol already contemplates different length addresses, it would just need a constant assigned for IPv6.
