How do you route all these IP addresses to the correct destination ? Actually all the IPv6 prefixes are know to all big routers (ASes, but that's getting technical). It's called the default free zone and it is growing by the day. The more non-aggregatable IPs, the more space on the route table of routers is occupied. And this space is really expensive

The same way as now. You'd just cache the last IP address of every port in the kernels of both communicating computers.

  no offense, but do you understand how routing (done by routers) works? that's where the challenge is, not at the endpoints.
