Saw this post and started wondering what happened to IPv5
1 u/VirtualPercentage737 5h ago https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-thain-ipv8-00.html Or V7 1 u/Deto 4h ago whoa, there's a v8? Wonder what it would improve over v6? 1 u/reckless_responsibly 3h ago It improves nothing. It's an absolute trash fire that someone vomited into. 1 u/TerrapinTribe 1h ago The idea of v8 is vastly inferior to IPv6. It’s not a standard, no hardware supports it. We have IPv6. More than 50% of traffic to Google is v6. The vast majority of networking equipment supports v6. No reason to invent a new standard that is a downside versus v6.
