Title: IPv6 support - again ...
Post by: razor on July 07, 2012, 11:10:42 AM

Hey,

what about support for IPv6 network protocol? It is aggressively coming out in internet (http://bgp.potaroo.net/cgi-bin/plot?file=%2fvar%2fdata%2fbgp%2fv6%2fas6447%2fbgp%2dactive%2etxt&descr=Active%20BGP%20entries%20%28FIB%29&ylabel=Active%20BGP%20entries%20%28FIB%29&with=step)

Porting application to new underlying network addressing can't be black magic. The only change from application perspective is length and format of IP address (IPv4 - 32bits, IPv6 - 128bits).

welcome!
there's nowhere i specify the length, so that's not like changing a number :)
i don't know what it takes, anyway i will probably face this problem with HFS 3.
