Submission + - Everything you need to know about IPv6

Butterspoon writes: "Ars Technica is running an excellent article entitled "Everything you need to know about IPv6", which should be regarded as essential reading for anyone who is overly comfortable with their IPv4 addresses. From the artice:

As of January 1, 2007, 2.4 billion of those [IPv4 addresses] were in (some kind of) use. 1.3 billion were still available and about 170 million new addresses are given out each year. So at this rate, 7.5 years from now, we'll be clean out of IP addresses; faster if the number of addresses used per year goes up.
Are you ready for IPv6?"
