Hi David<br>
<br>
>Most users need very few ports, ...<br>
<br>
Very true, but even a few ports can hurt a lot. <br>
<br>
Last Friday I gave a presentation (IPv6: Are we there yet?) to the <a
href="http://info.aisnsw.edu.au/public/AIScourses/Flyer.aspx?PDeventID=3918">Assn
of Independent Schools' NSW Managers of IT in Education conference</a>
during which I mentioned Dr Miyakawa's research.<br>
<br>
For a sysadmin needing to support the school's 300 year 8 geography
students simultaneously needing to access Google Maps in the first few
moments of period 3 in order to complete their in class assignment
avoiding NAT at all costs is a very attractive proposition! <br>
<br>
When I showed the effects, and worked through the numbers, realisation
of the benefits of IPv6 was instant.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>
Kevin<br>
