前段时间有IPv6即将进入根服务器 离我们已经很近和什么是IPV6。

但是最近又出现了个IPV9,在Google中搜寻了相关文章。其中技术文章是关于RFC 1606 ，原来早在1994年就有了。

看了原来IPv9老外早就研究过了，并且给出了个结论:Those who do not study history, are doomed to repeat it.

看起来，china现在是像RFC1606中所说的笑话在重复历史了。

Abstract

   This paper reviews the usages of the old IP version protocol. It
   considers some of its successes and its failures.

Introduction

   The take-up of the network protocol TCP/IPv9 has been phenomenal over
   the last few years. Gone are the days when there were just a few
   million hosts, and the network was understood. As the IP version 9
   protocol comes to the end of its useful life, once again due to
   address space exhaustion, we look back at some of the success of the
   protocol.

Routing

   The up to 42 deep hierarchy of routing levels built into IPv9 must
   have been one of the key features for its wide deployment. The
   ability to assign a whole network, or group of networks to an
   electronic component must be seen as one of the reasons for its
   takeup. The use of the Compact Disk Hologram units is typical of the
   usage. They typically have a level 37 network number assigned to each
   logical part, and a level 36 network number assigned to the whole
   device. This allows the CDH management protocol to control the unit
   as a whole, and the high-street vendor to do remote diagnostics on
   discreet elements of the device. This still allows sub-chip routing
   to be done using the 38th level addressing to download new nanocode.
   As yet, no requirement has been found for levels 40-42, with level 39
   still being used for experimental interrogation of atomic structure
   of components where required.

Allocation

   The vast number space of the IPv9 protocol has also allowed
   allocation to be done in a straight forward manner. Typically, most
   high street commercial internet providers issue a range of 1 billion
   addresses to each house. The addresses are then dynamically
   partitioned into subnet hierarchies allowing groups of a million
   addresses to be allocated for each discreet unit (e.g., room/floor
   etc.) The allocation of sub groups then to controllers such as light
   switches, mains sockets and similar is then done from each pool.

   The allocation process is again done in a hierarchical zoned way,
   with each major application requesting a block of addresses from its
   controller. In this way the light bulb requests an address block from
   the light switch, the light switch in turn from the electrical system
   which in turn requests one from the room/floor controller. This has
   been found to be successful due to the enormous range of addresses
   available, and contention for the address space being without
   problems typically.

   Whilst there are still many addresses unallocated the available space
   has been sharply decreased. The discovery of intelligent life on
   other solar systems with the parallel discovery of a faster-than-
   light transport stack is the main cause. This enables real time
   communication with them, and has made the allocation of world-size
   address spaces necessary, at the level 3 routing hierarchy. There is
   still only 1 global (spatial) level 2 galaxy wide network required
   for this galaxy, although the establishment of permanent space
   stations in deep space may start to exhaust this. This allows level 1
   to be used for inter-galaxy routing. The most pressing problem now is
   the case of parallel universes.  Of course there is the danger of
   assuming that there is no higher extrapolation than parallel
   universes…

   Up to now, the hacking into, and setting of holo-recorder devices to
   the wrong channel from remote galaxies, has not been confirmed, and
   appears to be attributable to finger problem with the remote control
   whilst travelling home from the office.

Applications

   The introduction of body monitors as IPv9 addresseable units injected
   into the blood stream has been rated as inconclusive. Whilst being
   able to have devices lodged in the heart, kidneys, brain, etc.,
   sending out SNMPv9 trap messages at critical events has been a useful
   monitoring tool for doctors, the use of the blood stream as both a
   delivery and a communication highway, has been problematic. The
   crosstalk between the signals moving through the blood stream and the

   close proximity of nerves has meant that patients suffering multiple
   events at once, can go into violent spasm. This, coupled with early
   problems with broadcasts storms tending to make patients blood boil,
   have led to a rethink on this whole procedure. Also, the requirement
   to wear the silly satellite dish hat has led to feelings of
   embarrassment except in California, where it is now the latest trend.

   The usage of IPv9 addresseable consumer packaging has been a topic of
   hot debate. The marketing people see it as a godsend, being able to
   get feedback on how products are actually used. Similarly, the
   recycling is much improved by use of directed broadcast, “All those
   packages composed of cardboard respond please.” Consumers are not so
   keen on this seeing it as an invasion of privacy. The introduction of
   the handy-dandy directed stack zapper (which is also rumoured to be
   IPv9 aware) sending directed broadcasts on the local food package net
   effectively resetting the network mask to all 1’s has made this an
   area of choice.

   The advent of the IPv9 magazine was universally approved of. Being
   able to ask a magazine where its contents page was the most useful of
   the features. However combined with the networked newspaper/magazine
   rack, the ability to find out where you left the magazine with the
   article that was concerned with something about useage of lawn mowers
   in outer space is obvious. The ability to download reading habits
   automatically into the house controller and therefore alert the
   reader of articles of similar ilk is seen as marginal. Alleged
   querying of this information to discover “deviant” behaviour in
   persons within political office by members of contending parties is
   suspected

   Sneakernet, as pioneered by shoe specialists skholl is seen to be a
   failure. The market was just not ready for shoes that could forward
   detailed analysis of foot odour to manufacturers…

Manufacture

   Of course, cost is one of the issues that was not considered when
   IPv9 was designed. It took a leap of imagination to believe that one
   day anything that wished to be could be IPv9 addresseable. It was
   assumed that IPv9 protocol machines would drop in price as with
   general chip technology. Few people would have forseen the advance in
   genetic manipulation that allowed viruses to be instructed to build
   nano-technology IPv9 protocol machines by the billion for the price
   or a grain of sugar. Or similarly, the nano-robots that could insert
   and wire these in place.

   The recent research in quark-quark transistors, shows some promise
   and may allow specially built atoms to be used as switches. The
   manufacture of these will be so expensive (maybe up to 10cent an IPv9
   stack) as to be prohibitive except for the most highly demanding
   niches.

Conclusions

   Those who do not study history, are doomed to repeat it.

Security Considerations

   Security issues are not discussed in this memo.

RFC 1606 中文:

使用IP版本9的历史观
(RFC 1606 A Historical Perspective On The Usage Of IP Version 9)

摘要
本论文回顾了旧的IP版本协议的使用。探讨它的一些成功和失败。
1. 介绍
最近几年TCP/IPv9显著兴起。只有几百万台主机的时代已经过去，网络为人们所了解。再一次因为地址耗尽，IP版本9协议走向了有用生命的尽头，这里我们回顾一下本协议的一些成功之处。

2. 分配
IPv9 协议的大量的号码空间也使得分配地址可以用一种直接的方式。典型的，大部分高级街道商业互联网提供者提供给每个房屋10亿个地址。……分配过程可以再通过 结构化分区的方式进行，每一个主要的应用从他的控制器请求一块地址。通过这种方式，电灯泡从电灯开关请求一个地址，电灯开关从电气系统，电气系统从房间/ 地面控制器依次请求地址。由于地址空间很大地址冲突不会有特别的问题发生，这种方式是很成功的，同时还有很多没有分配空间的地址正在快速增长。别的太阳系 的智能生命的发现以及超光速传送栈的同时发现是主要的原因。这样就可以和他们实时通信，世界范围的地址空间的分配就有必要了，可以分配在第三层路由结构。 有一个全局的（空间）第二层星系范围的网络可以分配给这个星系，可是在外太空建立的永久空间站开始消耗这个资源。最紧迫的问题是平行宇宙的情况。当然，假 设没有比平行宇宙更高级的外推是不完备的。。。

3. 应用
身体监视器的引入，作为IPv9可以取址的单元注入到血液流中，还没有作出结 论。同时，在心脏，肾脏，大脑，等等中可以植入设备，在紧急情况下发送 SNMPv9捕捉消息，这已经是医生的一个有用的监视工具，把血流既当作一个传送带也当作一个信息高速公路存在一些问题。在血流中移动的信号的干扰和神经 的信号的近似，意味着病人同时承受着多个事件，可能导致猛烈的痉挛。这样，再加上早期的广播风暴导致病人血液沸腾的问题，导致人们对这个问题重新思考。同 样，穿着愚蠢的碟形卫星天线帽的需要会使人觉得不好意思，当然除了在加尼福利亚，那儿这是最新的时髦。
IPv9取址商品包装的使用是讨论的热点。 行销人视他为神赐之物，它能够反馈商品到底是如何使用的。同样，直接广播极大地改善了回收。“请所有纸板组成的 包装响应。”顾客对她是否是私生活的入侵并不在乎。猜物直接跳转器的引入（谣传IPv9要使用）发送直接的广播包到本地的食物包装网络，有效的重置网络掩 码为全1，意思是你选择了这个食物。
IPv9杂志的出现受到普遍欢迎。能够询问一般杂志目录在那里是最有用的特性。如果和联网报纸/杂志架结合起 来，就有发现你把登有关于外太空割草机的文章 的杂志放在那里的能力。最终会有自动下载阅读习惯到家庭控制器，然后告诉读者那里有同样主题的文章的能力。反对党成员所谓的信息查询，可以发现办公室内人 们的“异常”行为，是所谓隐秘的运动鞋网络，鞋匠先驱的这个行动失败了。市场还没有准备接受发送详细分析脚臭到制造商那里的鞋子。
 
4.制造
当 然，制造代价是设计IPv9时没有考虑的一个问题。它需要跳跃性的想象去相信有一天任何想要取址的东西都是IPv9可以取址的。他假设IPv9协议机随着 芯片技术的进步价格会下降。很少有人预见到使用基因技术让病毒按指令建造纳米技术IPv9协议机的代价。同样，纳米机器人是否有地方放这些东西。
最新的研究是夸克-夸克转换器，可以让原子当开关使用。制造这些东西非常昂贵（可能10倍于IPv9协议栈）,除非有非常特别的需要。

5.结论
不研究历史的人，注定要重复他。
