Title : IPv4 with 64 bit Address Space
Author : William Chimiak
Filename : draft-chimiak-enhanced-ipv4-00.txt

Abstract:
This document describes a solution to Internet address depletion
problem using a clever IPv4 option mechanism as a solution, called
enhanced IP (EnIP). Because it is IPv4, it maximizes backward
compatibility while providing a six order of magnitude increase in
address space. Unlike other similar proposals, care was taken to
avoid costly changes and requirements to the core network and border
routers, with the exception that options be passed in that equipment
as described below. Because it is backward compatible, current IPv4
software, network equipment, firewalls, intrusion detection/
protection, and layer 5 firewalls can be maintained until IPv6 system
information security reaches acceptable maturity and availability.
In addition, because it is IPv4, the legally and operational
complexities can be postponed or avoided.
