	IPv4 Address Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Originally the address block is a parameter set of the underlying protocol, and the intended purpose of segments of the address space is described in an address architecture.
		Address space is allocated to the RIRs in units of /8 address blocks, and the specific address blocks allocated to the RIR is an IANA decision.
		Addresses are made available from the unallocated pool to meet demands for their use in networks, and are intended to be assigned for as long as the need condition continues.

	IP address - ExampleProblems.com
		IPv4 addresses are commonly expressed as a dotted quad, four octets (8 bits) separated by periods.
		IPv4 addresses were originally divided into two parts: the network and the host.
		While a number of measures have been taken to conserve the limited existing IPv4 address space (such as the use of NAT and Private Addressing), the number of 32-bit IP addresses is not sufficient to accommodate the long-term growth of the Internet.

	IPv4 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		IPv4 is a data-oriented protocol to be used on a packet switched internetwork (e.g., Ethernet).
		This address is the address of the sender of the packet.
		Note that this address may not be the "true" sender of the packet due to network address translation.

		The original ipv6 ipv4 intention was for a sending host to specify a preference for how the datagram would be handled as it made its way through an internetwork.
		When a large IPv4 packet ipv6 and ipv4 is split up into smaller ipv4 and ipv6 fragments (which is usually, but not always, done at a router in the middle of the path from the source to the destination), the fragments are all normal IPv4 packets; i.e.

	Entering the IPv6 Communication World by the SOCKS-Based IPv6/IPv4 Translator
		It is impossible because the IPv6 address is four times longer than the IPv4 address, and the IPv4 application does not have any long address space in which to store it.
		Thus the numerical IPv6 address expression is treated the same as the DNS expression in the DNS name-resolving delegation mechanism.
		Constraints to deal with the fake address: The fake address must be dealt with as a temporary value at the application; it must not be recorded permanently as a bookmark.

		Furthermore, a growing understanding of the possible exhaustion of the address space, or even the coming policy changes to prevent it, will likely have a dramatic effect on end user behavior.
		IPv4 allocated /8s of various organizations who received allocations prior to the existence of the RIRs.
		We emphasize that while reclamation of all such addresses seems unlikely, the least likely to be reclaimed is this final component, which includes loopback and private addresses used ubiquitously throughout the Internet.

		IPv4 can be modified to perform some of these functions, but the expectation within the IAB is that the results are likely to be far less useful than what could be obtained by widespread deployment of IPv6.
		A packet addressed to the group's anycast address is delivered to only one of the nodes in the group, typically the node with the "nearest" interface in the group, according to current routing protocol metrics.
		IPv4 was initially designed with class A, class B, and class C addresses, which divided address bits between network and host but did not create a hierarchy that would allow a single highlevel address to represent many lowerlevel addresses.

	IP address - WebArticles.com
		An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number, similar in concept to a telephone number, used by machines (usually computers) to refer to each other when sending information through the Internet.
		In practice, because addresses are allocated in blocks, a large number of unused addresses are unavailable (much like unused phone numbers in a sparsely-populated area code), so that there is some pressure to extend the address range via IP version 6 (see below).
		Bomis, in turn, has assigned the specific address 64.78.205.6 to the host interface that is named www.wikipedia.com.

	CAIDA : research : id-consumption
		CAIDA's analysis of IPv4 consumption rates makes use of an exponential model that predicts that, if current IPv4 address allocation rates prevail, IANA will allocate all unused IPv4 space by 2008, with exhaustion of the additional multicast and special-use space following in late 2008 and early 2009.
		Most notable are Geoff Huston's "IPv4 Address Space Report" [1] and Tony Hain's "A Pragmatic Report on IPv4 Address Space Consumption" [2].
		With respect to the ownership of address space, the clear trend is toward an increasing concentration of ownership of the address space in a relatively small number of organizations.

	Ask the Experts: How Windows Vista Delivers IPv6
		Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is used to verify IP addresses are unique on the Local Area Network (LAN).
		Under IPv4, IP addresses were represented by four octets or 8 bit fields (0–255 for each field written in standard decimal notation) separated by decimal points.
		The first 64 bits of the IPv6 address typically identifies your network or "where you are" and the second 64 bits identifies the device or "who you are." This not only supports the concept of hierarchical routing, but also plays a very large role in the ability for IPv6 devices to use autoconfiguration.

	Network address translation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		In computer networking, the process of network address translation (NAT, also known as network masquerading or IP-masquerading) involves re-writing the source and/or destination addresses of IP packets as they pass through a router or firewall.
		In a typical configuration, a local network uses one of the designated "private" IP address subnets (the RFC 1918 Private Network Addresses are 192.168.x.x, 172.16.x.x through 172.31.x.x, and 10.x.x.x), and a router on that network has a private address (such as 192.168.0.1) in that address space.
		As traffic passes from the local network to the Internet, the source address in each packet is translated on the fly from the private addresses to the public address(es).

		Heat Stroke, Heat Exhaustion Professor Kazem Fathie, M.D., F.A.C.S., F.I.C.S.,Ph.D. The extent to which various body systems can adapt to a hot climate or hot working conditions, exposure to alternately high and low temperature extremes and conditions of high and low humidity is apparently related to an individual's ability to avoid heat illnesses.
		Drinking adequate amounts of water and increasing the intake of salt are two preventive measures that may help to avoid heat illness, particularly in the case of heat exhaustion and heat cramps.
		Heat exhaustion and heatstroke are part of a continuum of heat-related illness.

	IPv4 (Linux Reviews)
		IPv4 is the dominant network layer protocol on the internet and when ignoring its successor â” IPv6 â” it is the only protocol used on the internet.
		This reduces the number of addresses that can be allocated as public Internet addresses and as the number of addresses available is consumed, an IPv4 address shortage appears to be inevitable in the long run.
		These predictions are derived from current trends, and do not take into account any last minute rush to acquire the last available addresses.

	Agencies see signs that IPv4 is running out of room
		15—Evidence of IPv4 address exhaustion is showing up on government networks, said Michael P. Brig, the Next Generation Internet program manager at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command in Charleston, S.C. SPAWAR-Charleston's technical network can no longer get new addresses, Brig said.
		Predictions of an address crisis in the current, 32-bit Internet Protocol Version 4 date back to the early 1990s, but global transition to the more capacious 128-bit Version 6 has not begun, except experimentally [see story at www.gcn.com/vol18_no36/news/948-1.html].
		The experimental sites will get their blocks of IPv6 addresses from the American Registry for Internet Numbers Ltd., at www.arin.net.

		The issue is what is the standard block of IPv6 address space an ISP should allocate to an individual.
