On November 9, 2009, Geoff Huston of APNIC, with detailed daily simulations, predicted the exhaustion date of the unallocated IPv4 address pool in September 2011. The practical solution to solve the IPv4 address exhaustion is the transition of the Internet to IPv6. However, the penetration was still less than one percent of the Internet traffic in any country. IP2Location also offers a free version of IP2Location IP-Country database for IPv6 at http://www.ip2location.com/IPV6-COUNTRY.aspx .
