Oh, so it's like "x.x.x.x.x.x"? (n/t) | by Llyr | 2003-02-13 08:18:40 |

AFAIK, with IPv6, an IP address is 128 bits. | by Stavros | 2003-02-13 08:22:30 |

Oh, okay (n/t) | by Llyr | 2003-02-13 08:26:17 |
|

Nope, it's 128... I just looked it up (n/t) | by Llyr | 2003-02-13 08:48:41 |

Same here. Oh well. Another 64 bits of overhead. ( (n/t) | by taIon | 2003-02-13 09:10:35 |

|
Okey (n/t) | by Llyr | 2003-02-13 08:26:33 |
|
It also adds a few extras | by taIon | 2003-02-13 08:46:38 |
