I just wanted to contradict the metaphor Jim described. First, you are making the assumption that the connectivity model used with IPv4 will remain unchanged with IPv6. I am not so confident this will always be the case. Second, there are a bit under 2.1 million /24s in the global unicast IPv6 space. How long would you expect 2.1 /24s to last? Regards, -drc
