With some kind of NAT mechanism, naturally. Which is not possible with the current IPv6 address format, if you want something stateless and that does not rely on DNS.
How would you have made a 128-bit address more human-readable? Does it really matter?
I have found it difficult to talk hex with people from other countries. Try to say FACEB00C to someone who does not speak your langage. Foxtrox Alpha Charlie Echo Bravo Zero Zero Charlie does not go through either. 250.206.176.192 works all the time. Everyone gets the numbers. Michel.
