 | | Individual Submission G. Huston Internet-Draft APNIC Expires: August 12, 2005 February 11, 2005 Considerations on the IPv6 Host density Metric draft-huston-ipv6-hd-metric-00.txt Status of this Memo This document is an Internet-Draft and is subject to all provisions of section 3 of RFC 3667. |
 | | The metric was 'normalized' in RFC3194, and a new metric, the "HD-Ratio" was introduced, with the definition: log(number of allocated objects) HD = ------------------------------------------ log(maximum number of allocatable objects) Figure 3 HD values are directly proportional to the H ratio, and the values of the ratio range from 0 to 1. |
 | | The analysis described in RFC 3194 then applied this HD-Ratio metric to the examples given in RFC 1715, and on the basis of these examples, postulated that HD-Ratios of 0.85 or higher forced the network into some form of renumbering, while 0.80 or lower was considered to be an acceptable network efficiency metric. |
