The discussion for Tuesday's class, led by John Lelia and Nelson Pimentel, was about IPv6. The article that was given to us didn't discuss much about the technology but rather talked about the problems that it would face if IPv6 was used. One of the main problems was the work that needs to be put into making servers IPv6 compatible.
Right now, many servers are only compatible with IPv4 addresses and not IPv6. If IPv6 is going to be used, a lot of money will be used to acquire and enable it. Since it takes so much money to acquire and enable, is it even worth for a company like Google to go through all of this trouble. Nelson and John explained that it was worth all of this trouble because more addresses are able to access their sites.
