*IPv6 - Size really does matter*

The internet has been around for more than 40 years in some form. It's
outgrown its ability to handle all of the hosts and fortunately, there's a
solution. IPv6 is mature and wide-spread and not only does it increase the
address space to 128-bits (up from 32-bits) it is also more efficient for
routing and transferring data across the net and it's better for VOIP and
Gaming. In the US, 55% of all internet traffic is over IPv6 and in some
other countries it's much higher. You almost certainly are using it in your
home network and your cell phone is likely using it as well.

Join us as Jim McQuillan gets into the history of the internet and
discusses IPv4 shortcomings and how IPv6 deals with those issues. Hopefully
you'll come away ready to embrace this technology.


Also, we'll be doing a short presentation on a Unix/Linux topic. This month
we'll be talking about the *xdg-open* (Linux) and *open* (MacOS) commands.
