ANALYSIS
RFC1715 defines an “H” ratio based on address space assignment in various networks
Applied to 45 bit address space and world population of 10.7 billion in 2050*
H = log10 (1.07 * 1010) / 45 = 0.22
Less than the “H” ratio of
- US Telephone numbers (0.24), France Telephone numbers (0.26), DECnetIV (0.26), or IPv4 addresses mid 1990 (0.23)
