	IPv4 Address Space: October 2003
		The IPv4 allocation unit in this case is the "/8 block", equivalent to approximately 16 million addresses.
		The IANA policies for allocation of IPv4 address blocks to the RIRs are applied fairly and are based purely on the documented need for address space.
		When IPv4 address space finally "runs out" this will occur at the global level, leaving each region with a relatively small pool of addresses remaining to be allocated.

	RFC 2529 (rfc2529) - Transmission of IPv6 over IPv4 Domains without Explic
		For the purposes of this document, an IPv4 domain is a fully interconnected set of IPv4 subnets, within the same local multicast scope, on which there are at least two IPv6 nodes conforming to this specification.
		Frame Format IPv6 packets are transmitted in IPv4 packets [RFC 791] with an IPv4 protocol type of 41, the same as has been assigned in [RFC 1933] for IPv6 packets that are tunneled inside of IPv4 frames.
		These IPv4 multicast addresses SHOULD be taken from the block 239.192.0.0/16, a sub-block of the Organization-Local Scope address block, or, if all of those are not available, from the expansion blocks defined in [ADMIN].

	IPv4 Encyclopedia Article @ 216.92.85.60 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		IPv4 is the dominant network layer protocol on the internet and when ignoring its successor — IPv6 — it is the only protocol used on the internet.
		IPv4 is a data-oriented protocol to be used on a packet switched internetwork (e.g., Ethernet).
		Since an IPv4 header may contain a variable number of options, this field specifies the size of the header (this also coincides with the offset to the data).

	RFC 3927 (rfc3927) - Dynamic Configuration of IPv4 Link-Local Addresses (Site not responding. Last check: )
		IPv4 Link-Local addresses are not suitable for communication with devices not directly connected to the same physical (or logical) link, and are only used where stable, routable addresses are not available (such as on ad hoc or isolated networks).
		IPv4 Link-Local addresses should therefore only be used where stable, routable addresses are not available (such as on ad hoc or isolated networks) or in controlled situations where these limitations and their impact on applications are understood and accepted.
		The IPv4 Link-Local address may continue to be used as a source address in communications where switching to a preferred address would cause communications failure because of the requirements of an upper-layer protocol (e.g., an existing TCP connection).

	Domain name system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		IP (IPv4, IPv6), ICMP, IGMP, ARP, RARP, …
		An A record or address record maps a hostname to a 32-bit IPv4 address.
		A PTR record or pointer record maps an IPv4 address to the canonical name for that host.

	CAIDA : research : id-consumption : ipv4

		Fraction of allocated IPv4 address space held by each category of organization, where categories are defined by the total number of allocations received by an organization over the full time period.

	Internetworking: Transition from IPv4 to IPv6
		Since it is not possible to assume that all IPv4 addresses used are globally unique, the mapping may be site-specific in some cases instead of a fixed prefix, for example [4].
		This is performed by placing the 32-bit IPv4 address to the rightmost four bytes of the 128-bit IPv6 address and subsituting a fixed site-specific or global prefix to the remaining 96 bits.
		The latter alternative still restricts the functionality to the IPv4 features and may encounter problems, for example, if manual mapping of IPv6 addresses to addresses used by the application is required [1].

	Internetworking with IPv4 and IPv6: A networking primer
		Whereas the IPv4 headers are variable in length, all IPv6 headers have a fixed length of 40 bytes, allowing easier firmware development for routers and easier software development.
		IP spoofing is statistically one of the most common forms of deliberate intrusion; and with IPv4, there is no native way for a server to determine whether packets are being received form the legitimate endstation.
		IPv4 routers forward this traffic without knowledge that IPv6 is involved.

		Originally, all the IPv4 address spaces was managed directly by the IANA.
		Later parts of the address space were allocated to various other registries to manage for particular purposes or regional areas of the world.

	Configuring IPv4-to-IPv6 Transition Mechanisms (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In other words, IPv4 and IPv6 forwarding processes, routing protocols, and route tables run in parallel to one another, which also means that they are separate and independent of one another.
		The IPv4 address assigned to Ethernet interface 3/1 is used as the tunnel source, while the IPv4 address 192.168.100.1 is configured as the tunnel destination.
		The IPv4 address assigned to Ethernet interface 3/1 is used as the tunnel source.

		IPv4 is the predominant transport mechanism for layer 3 traffic, and it is used to connect devices end to end across the Internet.
		IPv4 Routers are extremely important because they are responsible for forwarding information across networks.
		The IPv4 consortium is devoted to extensively testing many routing devices, along with their ability to interoperate with each other.

	The Design and Implementation of an IPv6/IPv4 Network Address and Protocol Translator
		IPv4 systems, however, are ubiquitous and are not about to go away "over night" as the IPv6 systems are rolled in.
		The IPv4 type-of-service and IPv6 traffic-class and flow-label fields are also ignored by the translator, as there does not exist a semantic mapping between them (specifically, the use of the IPv6 flow-label field has not been specified yet).
		For example, IPv4 type-of-service values cannot be equivalently expressed in an IPv6 context where quality of service for a packet is marked by two fields, traffic-class and flow-label, as they differ in their currently specified semantics.

	Guidelines - Initial IPv4 Allocation
		Therefore, ARIN allocates IPv4 address space to organizations using a "slow-start" model, meaning allocations are based on justified need, and not solely on a predicted customer base.
		In order to qualify for an allocation of IPv4 address space from ARIN, an organization must be able to show the utilization of address space equaling a /20, though the space does not have to be contiguous.
		Organizations requesting an allocation under the IPv4 Multi-homing policy must prove an intent to multi-home, demonstrate utilization for at least a /23-worth of IP address assigned by upstream providers, supply reassignment information for its current address space; and provide 3-, 6-, and 12-month utilization projections.

	IP, Internet Protocol
		Given the present classless nature of the IP address space, the basis for the reservation no longer applies and addresses in this block are subject to future allocation to a Regional Internet Registry for assignment in the normal manner.
		Formerly known as the Class D address space, it is allocated for use in IPv4 multicast address assignments.
		This block, formerly known as the Class E address space, is reserved.
