Comcast has all of them in one AS? Similarly, China will have all 1B customers in one AS? If not, they can use the same 1918 space in each one. Also, Comcast are not going to have 100M IPTV subscribers. I got this from www.ncta.com/ContentView.aspx?contentId=2685

: Which is more complicated? Managing overlapping address blocks, : probably in a system which was never designed to do that, or : moving to a unique IP address per endpoint? (Also probably in a : system which was never designed for IPv6) I would think moving a network that supports many tens of millions of customers to IPv6 would be more complicated than readdressing 1918 space (probably via DHCP) to be non-overlapping. scott
