RIPE NCC’s last /8

• Different rules than before!

• Ensures IPv4 access for all members

• /16 set aside for unforeseen situations– if unused, will be distributed

• No PI

12


Rules for getting IPv4 from the last /8

• 16000+ /22s in a /8

• members can get one /22 (=1024 addresses)

• must already hold IPv6

• must qualify for allocation

13


Transfer of IPv4 Allocations

• Policy 2007-08: Allocation Transfer Policy

14

– Don’t buy your IPv4 on eBay!

– Transfer unused allocations to another LIR

– Minimum allocation size /22

– Evaluated by RIPE NCC

– Update in RIPE Database

How to

measure

IPv6

adoption

???


Different ways of measuring IPv6 adoption• IPv6 Allocations by the RIPE NCC

19

• IPv6 RIPEness• LIRs with/without IPv6 • % IPv6 enabled networks (ASNs)• Rankings based on client IPv6 preference

• % websites reachable over IPv6

• IPv6 traffic as % of total traffic• % of page views (hits) over IPv6

• Performance v4 vs v6

• DNS: % having A vs AAAA records

• Client capability: can it use IPv6

• etc etc

IPv6 Ripeness

23

• Rating system:– One star if the LIR has an IPv6 allocation

– Additional stars if:

- IPv6 Prefix is announced on router

- A route6 object is in the RIPE Database

- Reverse DNS is set up

– A list of all 4 star LIRs: http://ripeness.ripe.net/

World IPv6 Launch


World IPv6 Launch on 6 June 2012

• Major organisations permanently enabled IPv6 for for their services

– Google, Facebook, Yahoo!, Bing, etc

• IPv4 not “switched off”

• More info on:– http://www.worldipv6launch.org/

– content providers: dual stack & AAAA records in DNS

33


Bulgaria and World IPv6 Launch

• Some participation - top 50 Alexa list- www.google.bg

- bren.bg

- acad.bg

- uni-sofia.bg

- bullet-zone.com

- bulsat.bg

- brokensociety.com

Percentage of websites reachable over IPv6

Conclusions - What We Learned

• IPv6 works just fine.

• Dual-stack = two chances for best performance

• Most sites kept IPv6 enabled

• Some sites did not enable IPv6 during the event
