Dear Colleagues,
This is a reminder to participate in the 2010 Global IPv6 Deployment
Monitoring Survey being conducted by GNKS Consult and TNO, in
collaboration with the RIPE NCC.
The survey is now available at:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010
The survey will close on 1 July 2010.
All five Regional Internet Registries have committed to soliciting
participation in this survey in order to compile the most complete
global IPv6 deployment data possible. The goal of the survey is to
gain a better understanding of where the community is moving, and what
can be done to ensure the Internet community is ready for the
widespread adoption of IPv6.
We encourage all organisations in the RIPE NCC service region to
participate in this survey, which we hope will establish a
comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for
IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed of 23 questions and can be
completed in about 15 minutes. For those without IPv6 allocations or
assignments, or who have not yet deployed IPv6, the questions will be
fewer in number.
Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be presented and
discussed at RIPE 61, which will be held 15-19 November in Rome,
Italy. Results will also be published on IPv6 Act Now:
http://ipv6actnow.org
Please provide your name and contact information on the survey form if
you wish to receive the draft survey analysis when available. Please
also indicate whether you are willing to share additional data with
the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring team.
Any questions concerning the survey itself should be addressed to <info(a)gnksconsult.com
>.

Dear Colleagues,
The RIPE NCC invites you to register for one of our upcoming training
courses:
- The LIR Training Course
This course teaches LIRs how to request Internet number resources and
interact with the RIPE NCC.
A course outline is available at:
http://www.ripe.net/training/lir/outline.html
- The Routing Registry Training Course
This course teaches LIRs how to use the RIPE Database for routing.
A course outline is available at:
http://www.ripe.net/training/rr/outline.html
- The IPv6 Training Course
This course teaches LIRs about the need for IPv6 and includes basic
information on how to plan your deployment.
A course outline is available at:
http://www.ripe.net/training/ipv6/outline.html
To see the location of upcoming courses and to register, please use the
LIR Portal or complete the registration form on our website at:

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at

Dear colleagues,
We looked at the "IPv6 ripeness" of all LIRs in the RIPE NCC service
region. This was initially created to adjust our IPv6 training course
depending on the country we are in. However, we felt this might also be
valuable in a bigger context.
Please find the results and methodology on RIPE Labs:
http://labs.ripe.net/content/ipv6-ripeness
We would be interested to hear what you think about this idea in general
and if you have any suggestions on how to modify or improve this.
Kind Regards,
Mirjam Kühne

Dear Colleagues,
As announced at RIPE 60 in Prague, GNKS Consult and TNO are working
with the RIPE NCC to repeat the 2009 survey on the current and future
use of IPv6 throughout the RIPE NCC service region.
The IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey is now online, and we encourage
all members of the RIPE community to participate:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010
The purpose of the survey is to better understand where the community
is moving, and what can be done to ensure the Internet community is
ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. As it is mostly the same as
the survey carried out in 2009, comparison of progress will be
possible. In addition, RIPE community participation will contribute to
a better understanding of the global situation, as APNIC, AfriNIC and
LACNIC will also send out the request to participate to their
communities.
We encourage all organisations in the RIPE NCC service region to
participate in this survey, which we hope will establish a
comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for
IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed of 23 questions and can be
completed in about 15 minutes. For those without IPv6 allocations or
assignments, or who have not yet deployed IPv6, the questions will be
fewer in number.
The survey will close on 1 July 2010.
Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be presented and
discussed at RIPE 61, which will be held 15-19 November in Rome,
Italy. Results will also be published on IPv6 Act Now:
http://ipv6actnow.org
Please provide your name and contact information on the survey form if
you wish to receive the draft survey analysis when available. Please
also indicate whether you are willing to share additional data with
the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring team.
We appreciate your time and interest in completing this survey. If you
have any questions concerning the survey, please send an email to <info(a)gnksconsult.com

Dear colleagues,
At the recent RIPE Meeting in Prague, Marco Hogewoning presented the
IPv6 CPE survey he conducted among various vendors. The results are now
published on RIPE Labs. You can find it on the home page
http://labs.ripe.net or you can go directly to:
http://labs.ripe.net/content/ipv6-cpe-survey
In order to keep this survey up to date, we are looking for feedback: If
you have access to a testbed, are already running tests of your own or
if you spot an error, please leave a comment in the IPv6 CPE Survey forum:
http://labs.ripe.net/content/ipv6-cpe-survey-0
or contact us on labs(a)ripe.net
Kind Regards,

Shane Kerr suggested I post this here; that some of you may find it
useful.
http://test-ipv6.com or
http://aaaa.test-ipv6.com
The intent of this site is to help the user what it will mean when
publishers start publishing dual-stack. When it makes sense, the test
will be updated to indicate what the future looks like when publishers are
IPv6 only.
The dual stack publishing case is an open question that has been discussed
between content and access providers. Measurements published by Google
indicate a number of users with IPv6 enabled, routes installed, but the
connectivity fails. In this situation, from the user's perspective, the
site is down, and the user will go to the competitor's site (Still "up",
IPv4 only).
Followup measurements by other parties (Tore Anderson published some data;
I've seen private data by other organizations) confirm the scale of the
numbers Google has seen.
While content providers will continue to do their own measurements
(whether publicly or privately), they won't likely be indicating to the
"broken" users what fate they are facing or how to fix it. This is where
I hope something like my site can help, in a brand-neutral way.
Please review the FAQ; and if you have comments feel free to send them to
me. The site will automatically show a survey form if you have results I
don't fully understand; if you see it pop up, please fill it out with
contact details in case I need to ask more questions. I've seen lots of
crazy things so far!
Note: This is a side project of mine, not an employer's. As such,
resources are limited. Please don't post this to slashdot - I'm not
appropriately resourced for it (both for hardware and finances).
