It’s official: Asia’s just run out of IPv4 Addresses
Well, that was fast. The Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC)
 has just released the last block of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) 
addresses in its available pool. We knew this was coming when the Internet Corporation For Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) announced in February that the last of the world’s remaining IPv4 blocks had been assigned
 to the Regional Internet Registries (RIR). What we didn’t know was that
 APNIC would run out quickly. I, and most other people, thought that its
 supply of IPv4 addresses would last until at least early summer. We 
were wrong.
