charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Herbie, 1. What does it do that IPv6 doesn=E2=80=99t already do? a) IPv8 is in-place backwards compatible no dual stacks. b) IPv8 has two default routes an odd and an even and load balances traffic across those two routes, and can run active, active, active stan= dby. c) IPv8 uses ASNs to organize IP addresses and WHOIS to manage routes, and therefore every route on the Internet is Known. d) IPv8 integrates the services of DHCP, DNS, NTP, WHOIS, ACL, XLATE and NETLOG into one platform managed and configured by OATH e) IPv8 kept 100% IPv4 addressing scheme that the world is familiar with it is not a "BIT EXTENSION" Meaning there are two parts to the address ASN --- IP Address. This is entirely different and easier to manage than 2^128 f) IPv8 is a sequential upgrade, and is a proper superset of IPv8, and will be upgraded over a few years as a cycle. g) IPv8 has built in VPN connections doing VPN over HTTPs. h) IPv8 uses OAUTH / JWT / NETLOG ACCT to replace Radius and Diameter. i) IPv8 peers at ASN and therefore each ASN has 3B addresses. j) Improved East-West security each IPv8 client can run in isolate, vlan, vrf, or guest mode without interaction from L2. k) IPv8 has a reserved address for 100.x.x.x ASN to Regional Inter Network Excange l) IPv8 has only one routing protocol BGP advanced. m) IPv8 uses Anycast v4 to route from IPv4 routers and switches, and therefor the FIB doesn't need to be upgraded to route. 2. So I am not sure what your asking me about in 2, the TCO to build IPv8 per vendor or the ROI for those vendors or the ROI for the customer= s. 1. The Total Cost to build it per reference is 1.1 The core of man's year with AI. Once Linux is built the rest of the world will follow. 1.2 2 Man years -- ZoneServer is a WebServer with Advance DHCP, DNS, NTP, OATH, JWT, UPGRADE, Config, WHOIS 1.3 2 Man years -- BGP, -- OSPF ISIS deprecated vendor lifs for CF, and EIGRP, and RIP unsupported. 3. ROI for Vendors, they spend roughly 5M to implement IPv8, and the ones based on NETBSD or Linux spend Zero. There are peole already buildi= ng reference builds since Monday. Charge an extra 10% for the IPv8 feature set. That will represent 5-10B more in vendors pockets. 4. If you meant ROI for companies, well a IPv6 is a Never Return on Investment, whereas the Audit and Insurance community is going to drive = the move to IPv8 as it will be the only certified internal networking protoc= l because of the increase security, isolation. 1. M&A Merger of two large companies, without IPv8, months, and years of planning merging the 10.x.x.x with IPv8 assign each company a 127.x.x.x = ASN and it fixes the problem. 2. Training, there is ZERO retraining of this mechaism as all of the IPv4 is immediately understood. 3. Benefit of Zone server, ASN tracking cheaper inter exchange 4. Fully redundant odd/even networking without buying expensive parts 5. All of the parts will be upgraded via standard hardware and software turnover.

    c) IPv8 uses ASNs to organize IP addresses a= nd WHOIS to manage routes, and therefore every route on the Internet is Kno= wn.=C2=A0
    d) IPv8 integrates the services of DHCP, DNS, NTP, WHOIS, ACL,= XLATE and NETLOG into one platform managed and configured by OATH=C2=A0e) IPv8 kept 100% IPv4 addressing scheme that the world is familiar with i= t is not a "BIT EXTENSION"=C2=A0

  2. So I am not sure wh= at your asking me about in 2, the TCO to build IPv8 per vendor or the ROI f= or those vendors or the ROI for the customers.

  3. ROI for Ven= dors, they spend roughly 5M to implement IPv8, and the ones based on NETBSD= or Linux spend Zero. There are peole already building reference builds sin= ce Monday. Charge an extra 10% for the IPv8 feature set.=C2=A0 That will re= present 5-10B more in vendors pockets.=C2=A0

  4. If you meant ROI for companies, well a = IPv6 is a Never Return on Investment, whereas the Audit and Insurance commu= nity is going to drive the move to IPv8 as it will be the only certified in= ternal networking protocl because of the increase security, isolation.=C2= =A0
    1. M&A Merger of two large companies, without IPv8, months, and = years of planning merging the 10.x.x.x with IPv8 assign each company a 127.= x.x.x ASN and it fixes the problem.
    2. Training, there is ZERO retrainin= g of this mechaism as all of the IPv4 is immediately understood.
    3. Bene= fit of Zone server, ASN tracking cheaper inter exchange

The translation is done= through DHCP, DNS, and XLATE8

Every IP assignment=C2=A0through DHCP creates an A8 record=C2=A0and an A re= cord.=C2=A0
Every Client running LLDP populates the Common Name (CNAME) as the created = name=C2=A0

So your DHCP server on 127.10.12.33 ASN gives out the lease 10.50.10.20 and= puts an A and A8 in the DNS server=C2=A0

The XLATE8 server sees WebServer1 is the CNAME, and a DNS8 request returns = an A8 record, and a IPv4 returns the address of the Zone Server which it tr= anslates into the A8 that was just looked up, and puts that in the destinat= ion, and sends it on its way.=C2=A0

Thank you for the ARP8 f= allback explanation.

=C2=A0

You described: ARP8 quer= y first (ASN+IP), if no MAC returned, fall back to ARP4 (IP only).

=C2=A0

In a mixed broadcast dom= ain (some IPv8, some IPv4-only), this means every communication attempt gen= erates two rounds of ARP broadcasts =E2=80=94 ARP8 first, timeout, then ARP= 4. This effectively doubles ARP traffic.

1. What is the defined t= imeout before ARP8 falls back to ARP4? Is this configurable?<= /span>

2. Does ARP8 work within= existing 802.1Q VLANs? Or is a new broadcast domain isolation mechanism ne= eded?

3. In a database cluster= scenario (e.g., PostgreSQL streaming replication), if both nodes run IPv8 = but ARP8 resolution adds timeout delays during network micro-jitter =E2=80= =94 could this additional latency cause heartbeat failures and trigger split-brain?

Ok thats a good question. And let's just do arp8= alone as that will or might help you see why there is a sockaddr_inet8.=C2= =A0

=C2=A0

Arp8 needs to be able to set a type for ipv8 and arp= for an asn + ip. It doesn't fit inside of ipv4.=C2=A0

=C2=A0

So arp8 sends the asn + ip request in an arp8 type r= emembering you might have 2 sets of ip addresses on the same vlan.=C2=A0=

=C2=A0

Then if that doesn't return a MAC the next step = is to then call the current socket4 with just the ip address. If that retur= ns an ip address then it works.=C2=A0

=C2=A0

Some protocols must try the extended address first o= r be capable of it.=C2=A0

=C2=A0

Icmp8 arp8 are both examples of that.=C2=A0

=C2=A0

DHCP8 is a slightly different it doesn't give ba= ck inet address 8 it gives back inet version 4 with an option field set to = the asn, 2 routes.

Ipv8 will be the new ip and part of Android, ios, Wi= ndows, Linux, Mac updates.=C2=A0

1. The manufacture signs it and releases it.=C2=A0

2. It still gets a dhcp v4 address and runs in dhcp4= mode.

4. If it's hacked then rule 2 and 3 apply.
