IPv6 Are you ready?

I'm not, but I guess it's coming anyway.

Everything you need to know about IPv6 looks like a good place to start.

Ipv6 Firewalling looks to be a good read as well.

Note: This is, for the moment, only of interest to those of us who support large numbers of PC's and/or just enjoy this stuff for it's own sake.

It died in committee.

I'll wait until it happens to worry about it. I remember getting excited about IPv6 in 1995.

It has taken long enough that I don't care any more.
