It’s pretty common for IETF drafts to be substantially complete well before they are finalized as RFCs. For example, supporting ML-KEM in TLS is still a draft, but there are already multiple large scale deployments of it since the technical aspects were nailed down a while ago
I think that'll only happen when and if the corresponding drop in sales offsets increases in revenue from the subscription services owners will be forced to use. When they announced this originally for EVs it was clear the underlying motivation was to convert owners from a one-time source of income into an ongoing stream by forcing them into a subscription model for features they would get from CarPlay/Android Auto.
The smaller switches like the Arista 710P are meant for deployment out at the edge of the network where you want something small and quiet (e.g. at people’s desks or in conference rooms) to provide more ports without needing as many runs back to the network core where the big loud switches live. They’re still enterpise grade since they support enterprise features like centralized management, VLANs, QoS, IGMP snooping, etc.
This reminds me of how Sarah at the Connections Museum in Seattle wrote a driver to allow an Asterisk soft PBX on a Linux box to speak revertive pulse signaling to the pre-DTMF trunks on their old telephone switches
Many operators do configure the SIP signaling for VoLTE to use an IPsec transport terminated at the P-CSCF, but most (if not all) of them only configure IPsec to provide integrity protection.
> But I'm not sure if it works the same way against elliptic curves - or at least you'd probably need a bigger computer to attack the same level of security.
Elliptic curve cryptography is also based on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms, which makes it vulnerable to Shor’s algorithm. Unfortunately, while the increased difficulty of brute forcing ECC with a classical computer allowed it to use smaller key sizes to achieve security equivalent to older algorithms like RSA, the smaller key sizes make ECC attackable with fewer qubits.
The point was a prefix from 2600::/16 isn’t special; it’s just from one of the blocks assigned to ARIN. One ISP I know of with an allocation in that range is Verizon, which announces a number of prefixes over BGP in 2600:1000::/24
There’s a great book about the development of Cell and Xenon (which went into the Xbox 360) called “The Race for a New Game Machine” that was co-written by a couple folks who worked on them at IBM.
