IPv6 Suggestions |

The current IPv6 standards suggestions are inconsistant with the current IPv4 standards.
The proposed standards look more like a MAC address or serial number and would be
difficult to remember for those direct accessing IP's. If nothing else, the new standards
should be blocked off in the same 3 alphanumeric segments and not in the inconsistant
manner proposed. It should probably b something like 000.000.000.000.000 or in blocks
of 4. A total of 15-16 characters should be a sufficient amount as this provides
numbers for trillions of computers, but if not, more can simply be added. 999 trillion
numbers would basically mean every person on earth would have their own LAN with
dozens of computers just to themselves. For better international standards, non-numeric
characters should be avoided or elminated as each country has their own alphabet.
