Will IPv6 ever catch on?

There’s no business incentive to upgrade to IPv6, the next generation Internet protocol, according to a survey of network operators conducted by the Internet Society (ISOC).

The report by the ISOC says that ISPs, enterprises and network equipment vendors report that there are “no concrete business drivers for IPv6.”

However, survey respondents said customer demand for IPv6 is on the rise and that they are planning on deploying IPv6 because they feel it is the next major development in the evolution of the Internet. 

That is a good idea, since it is anticipated that by 2012 (3 years) the internet will run out of IP addresses without IPv6!
