[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] /20 allocated - update your BGP filters!
by Gert Doering 10 May '04

10 May '04

Hi, the first IPv6 /20 allocation ever has been made today: inet6num: 2001:2000::/20 netname: EU-TELIANET-20040510 org: ORG-TIC2-RIPE descr: PROVIDER Local Registry descr: TeliaSonera AB country: EU and this means that "if you have been following my filtering recommendations, this network will not be accepted right now" (the current filters had a minimum accepted prefix length of a /24). I have updated the prefix filter recommendation page: http://www.space.net/~gert/RIPE/ipv6-filters.html and urge you to check whether your filters are prepared for these large prefixes. (There is a /23 upcoming, and rumors speak of a /19 being requested "real soon now"). TODO: the "strict" filter could do some grouping for different IPv6 allocation ranges, but this is dangerous today, as we don't know how future allocations will look like. Note: ICANN just doesn't get it. They have not allocated a reasonable prefix size to RIPE (like a /8), not even a /19, but "a big chunk of 14 sucessive /23s, summing up to a /20+/21+/22" - see the list at http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-tla-assignments Gert Doering -- RIPE Address Policy WG Co-Chair, keeper of the IPv6 filter list -- Total number of prefixes smaller than registry allocations: 60210 (58081) SpaceNet AG Mail: netmaster(a)Space.Net Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 Tel : +49-89-32356-0 80807 Muenchen Fax : +49-89-32356-299

[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] Actual IPv6 traffic
by Iljitsch van Beijnum 04 May '04

04 May '04

From the agenda: > C. Report(s) about *actual* v6 traffic volume as compared to v4? > *what's real* out there, not what's on powerpoint? > (input from the audience) My input in advance: I've been running some web measurements using a small image that can be linked on web pages to see whether the visitors are v6-capable or not. (The host that has the image has an IPv6 address and notes whether the image is requested over v4 or v6.) The results over the past months: Site IPv4 IPv6 Total 0 151 ( 98.05%) 3 ( 1.95%) 154 3 334 ( 94.35%) 20 ( 5.65%) 354 6 1355 ( 82.02%) 297 ( 17.98%) 1652 7 57 ( 75.00%) 19 ( 25.00%) 76 8 20107 ( 99.85%) 31 ( 0.15%) 20138 10 2918 ( 84.43%) 538 ( 15.57%) 3456 Totals 24925 ( 96.49%) 908 ( 3.51%) 25833 Note that the numbers refer to different sites with very different usage and IPv6 interest levels. Only number 8 is a very mainstream non-networking site (in Dutch) so I think this one represents average IPv6 capability for the web surfing public fairly well, at around 1 user in 666 requesting the counter image over IPv6. :-) See http://www.muada.com/ to see the counter in action and for a link to the results page. (BTW, it would help if someone would type sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 on router.ripemtg.ripe.net, or, failing that, kill the rtadvd.)

Below follows the agenda for the ipv6 wg for RIPE48. As you can see, we have a long agenda slot this time since we got many comments from people that we need more time. As a result, we still have some time left so I will accept last minute additions to the agenda. I have not found any volunteers for one proposed agenda item: What are the deployment plans behind the larger ipv6 allocations? I would very much welcome presentations from the receivers of such space on what their plans are on what they will do with this address space. Please let me know if you can help out or happen to know somebody who can help.

Below follows the draft agenda (v1) for the ipv6 wg for RIPE48. As you can see, we have a long agenda slot this time since we got many comments from people that we needed more time. Please contact me if you would like to propose any agenda items. I would like to draw your attention to one proposed agenda item: What are the deployment plans behind the larger ipv6 allocations? More recently, we have seen several ipv6 allocations that are larger than the minimum size. I would very much welcome presentations from the receivers of such space on what their plans are on what they will do with this address space.

[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] Configuration in IP networks
by Savitha Kumar 08 Apr '04

08 Apr '04

Hi, I was wondering about how nodes (hosts/routers) configures in an IP network. Do they use NMS or EMS to do this? I was also thinking about how all this would be done for IPv6 networks. Especially in the context that it supports auto-configuration. If anybody knows anything about this, can you please share your thoughts? Thanks a lot!

[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] IPv6 traffic measurement
by Savitha Kumar 23 Mar '04

23 Mar '04

Hi, Is there any activity going on to measure IPv6 traffic? If anybody is working on it, can you please share what tools are you using? I'm basically looking for an accounting tool which could recognize IPv6 packets and addresses. I got this tool called NeTraMet. Does anybody has any experience in using this tool for IPv6?

Note that this document doesn't mention ntop (www.ntop.org) which now supports IPv6 in CVS and can be used as an open-source alternative to Cisco's netflow.
