Abstract:
This document describes a solution to the Internet address depletion
problem through use of a clever IPv4 options mechanism as a solution.
This IPv4 protocol extension is called enhanced IP (EnIP). Because
it is IPv4, it maximizes backward compatibility while increasing
address space by a factor of 17.9 million. 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.
