It has long been anticipated, but the available pool of unallocated Internet
addresses using the older IPv4 protocol – which holds a total of slightly more
than four billion IP addresses - has now dipped to below the 10 percent mark,
meaning that there are only a bit over 400 million IP addresses left in the
global pool of unallocated addresses.<br>
