 DG>> That's funny :)
 BF>    How so?

Rules of the ipv6 f1d0 game:
* Zone must be between 1-9999 - no problem there, if this network has scalability issues, its unlikely to be in our lifetime.
* Net must be between 1-9999 - note to ZC's dont create nets > 9999 otherwise if they represent their IPv6 address using the unofficial f1d0 convention, it will be confusing.
* Node must be between 1-9999 - note to NC's - see above. Sorry Sergey, you must get a new node number if you want to play.

Sorry, I'm taking the piss, no disrespect, and text messages dont show the giggles I'm having because I've represented my nodename in hex prefixed f1d0 that generated this thread. And I'm not sure that anybody would ever look at it, or if they did, that it would answer a question by doing so.

It just seems logical to me, that if you wanted to have a f1d0 convention, you would choose hex, since numbers that are used to represent a node can be between 0-32767, and that can be represented completely in a IPv6 address if somebody chose to do so.

So, I'm guessing I cant have the little "f" next to my listing? :(
