[governance] Uni.X to Uni.X .NETworking - A Revisit to the Pivot Bits

[Jim Fleming]

Given the 160 bit Uni.X to Uni.X .NETworking message format:

SSDD.SSDD.SSSSDDDD.SSSDDD.LLLLLLLLLL
SSSSSSSDDDDDDD.SD.DDSS.SSSSSSDDDDDD
SDSDGTTT.PPSSSDDD.CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

The Pivot Bits are shown in the middle of the second group of 32-bits, as
DDSS.

The Pivot Bits could also be shown as:

SSSSSSSDDDDDDD.SD.SDSD.SSSSSSDDDDDD

Some feel that is easier to remember, especially long-term when the Pivot
Period Ends.
[People are seeing signs of the Pivot Period on the horizon. De-Peering and
Virtualization
are two terms you will see in the Pivot Period. The Pivot Period is sort of
like that brief
moment in time when the magician pulls very quickly on the table cloth and
the dishes
remain in place and the cloth is removed. In the case of the .NET, the cloth
is being added.
That is a little more complex, especially because people eating at the table
are not supposed
to notice and 900 lb. gorillas are adding the cloth.]

SDSD
9DMZ

With the Pivot Bits labeled SDSD, the DNS does not set the 49th bit. The
Source sets that
bit. The DNS still sets the D bit from DMZ, Don't Fragment can be controlled
from the DNS
AA Records. The Z bit is also controlled by the DNS AA Records and it will
likely be 0 for
a long time until more Virtualization and De-Peering occur in the Pivot
Period.

With the SDSD arrangement it is easier to Split the Pivot Bits, as shown
below.

Given the 160 bit Uni.X to Uni.X .NETworking message format:

0101.0101.SSSSDDDD.000000.LLLLLLLLLL
SSSSSSSDDDDDDD.SD.SD.SD.SSSSSSDDDDDD
SD11GTTT.PPSSSDDD.CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

2 - Fixed 01
2 - Fixed 01
4 - Now
3 - Fixed 000
7 - Now
1 - Fixed 0
1 - Fixed 1
<<< Pivot Point >>>
1 - Fixed 0
6 - Fixed 000000
1 - Fixed 0
1 - Fixed 1
3 - Now

With the Pivot Point, that is a natural place to insert your 32-bits.
That is easy to remember because they split the Pivot Bits.

01.01.DDDD.000.DDDDDDD.0.1.<<<<32 bits>>>>.0.000000.0.1.DDD

This does change the signature in the DNS A Records when used in transition
mode.
Note, the 0101 at the left may be all people check if a /4 is burned during
the transition period.
That is a /4 in the 64-bit address space, with the 49th bit in the messages
set to 1. That may
not be a major cost before the AA DNS records are more widely used, or AAAA
DNS
Records with the Virtual DNS Objects encoded, and the AA Record inside. With
all of the
fixed bits above, there is also a Virtual DNS Class with two AA Records. [
See: Class, method,
message, etc. in C at T for more info.]

With the above arrangement, the addressing remains: 20+32+12

A 5-letter name using the 4-bit Symbol Set can be used to describe the
Prefix.

The 11 DDDD.DDDDDDD bits could have been used to encourage 2,048 address
space
managers coupled with TLDs, that is clearly not going to happen any time
soon. The TLD
space is rapidly being reduced to .COM, the new root, a dead-zone, a
black-hole of corruption.

Governments are now more educated and the Lower-48 form a very large island.
The DDDD
bits are a natural for the Lower-48. The U.S. Government of course exists
mostly as a forum for
the Lower-48. If the DDDD bits are mapped to the Lower-48, then the DDDDDDD
bits can
be used for 128 major metro areas, or islands in each Super State. The Super
States combine
a bit of the real world and a large part of the virtual world. DelMarVa is a
good example of the
First Super State. Very little of VA is in DelMarVa, which is a real island,
with real land, and
real people, and a virtual overlay that drives the economy there. WIMAX can
mesh the entire
island and the 128 metro areas are natural exchange points. There is real
governance and virtual
governance. Most importantly, there are .NET resources allocated and people
can move forward
without the baggage of THE Big Lie Society.
