Re: IPv6 when?

2001:7f8:4:1::1ad7:1 is one of the two LINX interfaces for PN.
The PN allocation is 2a02:16c8::/32 and I guessed there would be something on 2a02:16c8::1

I can't get a trace from my HE tunnel however.

I can...
C:\Users\David>tracert 2A02:16C8::1

Trace complete.

Maybe HE just needed a refresh which has occurred now?

Re: IPv6 when?

For some reason I was tracing to the 2nd hop in the initial trace...
traceroute6 2A02:16C8::1
traceroute6 to 2A02:16C8::1 (2a02:16c8::1) from 2001:470:1f08:5f3::2, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets

From my HE tunnel.

Re: IPv6 when?

I don't know if any of the PN bods are able to comment but will there be an IPv6 trial at any point? If so - [waves hand in air]  Wink

Re: IPv6 when?

Yeah there will, no dates set yet though but we'll be looking for a few triallists so if you already have IPv6 capable hardware the best place to let us know is this thread and we'll keep you updated when it's nearer the time.

Re: IPv6 when?

Modem - Netgear DM111P
Router - Asrock A330GC running FreeBSD (amd64) and IPv6 enabled ppp
Current IPv6 access - TunnelBroker.net
Interested in trailing - Yes! (in case my previous posts on this matter were unclear)

Me too. I'm already online with HE's Tunnelbroker service, and I use a Linux box (actually Xen VM) as a router.

Re: IPv6 when?

Nice one guys, I've just started compiling a list which I will add to from anyone else who posts here.

Re: IPv6 when?

I have an ADSL modem which is independent of PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) and thus should work with IPv6. I would be interested in trying that.
Does it matter that my exchange is 20CN with no current planned date for 21CN ?

Re: IPv6 when?

IPV6 is just a protocol, doesn't matter if you're on dialup, adsl, asdl2 or fibre, cept for speeds.
I'd like to add my name to the list, Cisco 877W so IPV6 ready.

Re: IPv6 when?

Hi
Hopefully mid-to-end April we will be ready to start testing with real end-users.  Our aim is to be ready for participation in World IPv6 Day (8 June 2011), not just making our website available but to have broadband users enabled too.

Re: IPv6 when?

I was just checking what I'd need to change to switch from a tunnel to a PN system, seems pretty simple.
ipv6 unicast-routing
!
interface Vlan1
  ipv6 address 2001:8B0:xxxx:1::1/64
!
interface Dialer1
  ipv6 enable
!
ipv6 route ::/0 Dialer1

Though I have my ipv6 address on BVI1 not VLAN1 (for Wireless) though on older firmwares putting it on BVI1 will break it (past experience, luckily I have a console cable to fix my mistakes ;D)

A blog will be posted in the coming weeks, this will include our plan etc.

I'd look forward to it.
Even if its still early days, and not everything is yet tied down, such a blog may be helpful and interesting now. There will be increasing public awareness as IPv6 day approaches and early adopters will want to prepare for whats going to happen next.
