You all are happy... for me the _good scientific language_ was the
problem too...
But all this looks like a joke... Except one idea _we don't use all
information keeping by the network masks_. Through it can improve the
routing hierarchy, but not the address range (which is from 0.0.0.0 to
223.255.254.254 wit a little exceptions). To increase address range
Internet shgould use extra bits for the address, foir example by using
two-level hierarchy schema (and it do this - by NAT translation, for
example, bits from the PORT field are used as the address space).
THe more interesting issue for me is _is it possible to use
Source-Routing_ for the hierarchical routing as well?
Through if someone translate this joke to the normal labguage, I'll
appreciate too -:). Good paper - for the evening hours...
