KPN is now above 5% IPv6 deployment

KPN is now (October 2015) above 5% IPv6 deployment. Not much IPv6 development on Ziggo's side.

Newsservers with IPv6

I'm quite impressed by the amount of newsservers with IPv6 on port 563 or 119:

KPN op 4,65% IPv6 deployment

Zo, mooie score van KPN: op 4,65% IPv6 deployment (meting september 2015). En "deployment" betekent hier daadwerkelijk gebruik, dus tot op computer/tablet die het daadwerkelijk gebruikt.

KPN had in april 2015 (5 maanden geleden) nog geen IPv6 deployment (tenminste: blijkbaar minder dan 0.00%). Zie http://ipv6-or-no-ipv6.blogspot.nl/2015/04/ipv6-deployment-by-isps-in-netherlands.html

Ziggo zit op 0,17%, dus dat schiet niet op.

One-liner om de gegevens te achterhalen van http://www.worldipv6launch.org/measurements/

$ lynx --dump "http://www.worldipv6launch.org/apps/ipv6week/measurement/timeline-nets.html" | egrep -i -e "kpn|ziggo|xs4all|solcon|telfort|upc|zeeland" | awk '{ print $2 " " $NF }' | sort -u -k2,2 -r

XS4ALL 53.69%
KPN 4.65%
ZeelandNet 3.71%
Solcon 3.52%
Ziggo 0.17%

Chrome on Linux does not use teredo IPv6?

What happened? It seems Chrome and Chromium on Linux don't use IPv6 if the IPv6 is provided by teredo / miredo.

Everything works in Firefox, Miredo, lynx, ping6, etc with ipv6.google.com.

It looks like Chromium does not do a IPv6 DNS lookup; if I use a literal IPv6 address, it still works in Chromium.

I'm quite sure it all worked earlier on. Is Chrome/Chromium going the Windows way, so "if teredo, do not lookup IPv6 addresses"?

Check IPv6 enabled tracker in torrent

Here's an ugly oneliner to see if a torrent has IPv6 enabled trackers in it:

$ strings ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent | head -1 | tr '/' '\n' | awk -F: ' $1 ~ /\./ { print "host -t aaaa "  $1 }' | /bin/sh | grep -vi "has no AAAA"

ipv6.torrent.ubuntu.com is an alias for ubuntuv6tracker.bit.nl.
ubuntuv6tracker.bit.nl has IPv6 address 2001:7b8:3:37::21:3

So, yes, this torrent has an IPv6 enabled tracker.

I got this torrent from http://ipv6.torrent.ubuntu.com/, which only works via IPv6.

Openwrt: Allow all incoming IPv6 traffic

I run OpenWrt Barrier Breaker 14.07 on my router. Default it blocks all incoming IPv6 traffic. To accept all incoming IPv6 traffic, I did this:

In the file /etc/firewall.user put this:

ip6tables -F
ip6tables -X
ip6tables -A INPUT -p icmpv6 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -P INPUT ACCEPT
ip6tables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
ip6tables -P FORWARD ACCEPT

Saven and exit. Then

/etc/init.d/firewall restart

And that's it! All my IPv6 hosts are open to Internet.

Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-07-11 12:05 CEST
Nmap scan report for 2001:bad:cafe::1

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 18.02 seconds

As that's a bit too much, I'll now close down the firewall a bit.
