IPv4.. what about IPv6?
#2
I shouldn't affect AC much at all. Fact is, more and more hardware is being created that is IPv4 and IPv6 compliant, and we will gradually see IPv4 fade away. AC will continue to use UDP, which will be unchanged by the switch over to IPv6. Some variable might need to be re-assigned because the addresses are now 64 bit instead of 32 bit, that should be all.

Essentially, the difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is that IPv4 has 32 bit addresses and allowed for options fields in the header, while IPv6 has 64 bit addresses and has phased out the options field.
