IPv4 fading away part.... 5 or 6 or something like that. :P October 26, 2015, 04:45:27 pm http://arstechnica.com/business/2015/09/north-america-is-out-of-ipv4-addresses-for-really-real-this-time/So, North America doesn't have any more free IPv4 addresses to assign, what's left is address trading and IPv6.Elk should be mostly ready for IPv6, even though, to be completely honest, I feel there are few places that would need improvement.I also wonder: will still make sense IP banning in an IPv6 world?
Re: IPv4 fading away part.... 5 or 6 or something kile that. :P Reply #1 – October 27, 2015, 03:04:46 pm I already find IP banning worthless FWIW. But then I rarely ban....only once to be precise. Anyway, it's so easy to circumvent. All one must do is use another machine. lol
