I lost track of the discussion. Where does IPv4+ store the extra bit in DNS? Is there a new record type, or is it cleverly hidden in A records? In any case, for legacy IPv6 networks, just make sure that you have DNS64 and connecting to the internet will work just fine :-)

I agree. It is sad to see how little IPv6 support there is by content and services on the internet.

I personally think for each IPv4 only service we should create an IPv6 only service and use that for ripe/ieee/network related events. Everyone in our community should be able to get IPv6 anywhere, anytime. Cheers, Nico p.s.: Yes, I would always volunteer for providing that. Philip Homburg <pch-ripeml@u-1.phicoh.com> writes:

Some people would value reliable ipv4-only services as being more useful than ipv6 delivered over tunnelling hacks from third parties. But, most people don't care, in the same way that we don't care about e.g. the building materials used in our roads. Just that they work and that we can get on and do what we need to do. FWIW, I haven't had native ipv6 on my desktop for ~6 years because the service providers I use can't / won't provision it on the services I use. No, this doesn't bother me. Yes, I have v6 access via other means if I really need it. re: using Eventbrite, if it bothers people that the booking system isn't available over ipv6, then don't use it. Just bear in mind that the overall objective of wider ipv6 deployment may not be well served if you make that choice. Don't sacrifice the war to win a battle. Nick

Maybe it would be a better idea when choosing a tool / platform to check if IPv6 is supported and too prefer those tool / platform. And tell people why the other tool wasn't chosen.

Sure. Let's talk more about deploying IPv6. Did work very well for the last decade / years. Personally I think that one thing that might work better is to avoid IPv4 only services when there is an alliterative service with IPv6 enabled. One only has some little extra work, like installing a browser plugin and watching the output. So do not complain that $ISP has no IPv6 choose an alliterative if you can. If the git web service you are using does not complain and open tickets, choose an alternative. If your CDN does not fully support IPv6 do not complain and choose an alternative. ....

oh, but it has. Talking about issues, creating traction, usually helps. Just check the google stats for the percentage of users accessing google via IPv6: Sep 2008: 0.04%, May 2020: 30% . Then check the stats for Greece. Greece is at almost 50% and I can tell you why: We (main ISPs+Academia) created a task force and started presenting and educating (other SPs, Enterprises etc).

The eyeball side (access ISPs) have done a good job, though it took 10 years longer than one would have hoped for, and many are still not there.

It's always the two sides technology and sociological actions that need to work together. However at this point in time I think we, as a network community, have to admit that we carry the responsibility to drive the change and have to embrace it. That means that we need to be one step ahead, probably make one more sacrifice then the end user will ever do. And today, not tomorrow go with IPv6. That also means actively using, promoting and preferring IPv6 only services. Even if they lack behind in some regards. And not accepting hardware, software or platforms which lack features in IPv6 only environments. If we don't take that responsibility today, everyone of us is contributing to a very distorted Internet without the ability to have real end-to-end connectivity. If not the network community, who else will take action in going towards IPv6 only? Best regards, Nico "Change starts from within" -- Modern, affordable, Swiss Virtual Machines.

That also means actively using, promoting and preferring IPv6 only services.
(I'm assuming that IPv6 only meens a service that is reachable only over IPv6 and not IPv4) I don't see why promoting communication failures is a good thing. Except possibly as a fun thing to nudge people to take action. For example a quiz with prizes could be hosted on an IPv6-only platform.
And not accepting hardware, software or platforms which lack features in IPv6 only environments.
I don't know where to put it, but there may be a benefit for a list that lists known internet services that do not (or poorly) support IPv6 and with replacements that do support them. Such a list may have two advantages: 1) Somebody who likes to promote IPv6 would not have to spend time looking for good alternatives to known brands 2) Being on a list of backward companies is bad pr for any company, so it may stimulate companies to get off the wrong part of the list.

That's correct.

As previously stated, I think that everyone [in our community] is able to get IPv6. So this is not about promoting communication failures, but switching over to a protocol from which we all benefit.

In my experience, if you make people jump through hoops, you don't get any buy-in. Yes, they may be able to figure out how to set up a tunnel to access your service, but they will never do anything to support IPv6 in their own products or services.

right, we need to get at this from an end user perspective. Due to the pandemic, many people are now using their home internet connection for work. As the network providers for these home networks frequently were among the first to encounter the shortage of IPv4 addresses, many of these networks provide IPv6 connectivity while at the same time using some kind of NAT to provide IPv4 connectivity. These NAT systems tend to be overloaded, now probably more than usual. So the message to users is "If you have trouble to access company A providing service X, it might be because A does not support IPv6 connections. Try company B as an alternative who does have IPv6".

Current IPv4-only services already cause communication failures, because they lack support for the latest standard version of the IP protocol and it is happening in networks where you wouldn't expect it: There is a well known very large telco provider in germany who offers broad ipv6 support, even on mobile. But their invoices will never reach the customer if it's mailserver is on an ipv6-only system, because they are not even offloading to a dualstack gateway for compatibility and enduser support is unable to route any complaint to someone clueful. You can do this correctly on your side of the wire by implementing some form of translation (and you should), but you need cooperation on the other side. There is lot of systems out there, having Ipv6 support, but checking connection credibility via IPv4 (mostly seen in broken email spamfilter setups, but not limited to that) and some of them do it on purpose. Some of them have been running ipv6 for a long time in their network, so they should know better. If you want to increase IPv6 adoption rates significantly from where we are now, just throwing ipv6 on the network it not enough. You need to address a grave acceptance problem: Server Admins don't want IPv6 or are afraid of it without valid reason anymore (mostly based on fud). People need to understand: Supporting other ipv6-only networks doesn't necessarily mean that you have to go ipv6-only yourself. Dualstack will be completely fine, but IPv6 is not optional anymore. As Gert wrote: The network is usually not the main problem IMHO RIPE NCC should provide a good example by offering at least dual stack based services for all their services without excuses. IPv6 support should be considered state of the art now.

The NCC itself was asked like 15 years ago to provide dual-stack for everything, and as far as I can see, they've done a good job with that (thanks!). Using external services with no IPv6 is something not that easily addressed, but indeed, maybe some words might be spoken to these suppliers...

Some time ago I setup a wiki for stuff like that but got abused pretty fast. I'll move the content to markdown put it on gitlab (they have IPv6) an generate a website from there.

this kinda nails it. We're not appealing to end users because ipv6 is right at the bottom of the infrastructure stack and is completely boring for the same reason that e.g. cement or paint composition are boring. Sure, nerdy types like us might get excited about it, but we need to not kid ourselves that ipv6 has any mass appeal because it doesn't. People care about cat videos; people don't care how the cat videos arrive. If we want deployment, we need to create the ability to deploy ipv6 relatively easily, so that other pressures can be effective in pushing the actual deployment (e.g. pricing / NAT / policy / etc). There are lots of ways to approach this: one of them is having online meetings about deployment challenges. It isn't the only way; it's a long-term game and online deployment meetings won't cause the protocol to be deployed instantly. But it will help. Nick

Hi *, How does it come that this event is "sold out"? By all means, its free and only virtual... How many slots are/were available? Will this be recorded and put online afterwards? Thanks. Best, Bernd

Hello Bernd,
How does it come that this event is "sold out"? By all means, its free and only virtual... How many slots are/were available?
The platform we are using has its limits for number of attendees. We've just raised the limit today so there are more tickets available now.
Will this be recorded and put online afterwards?
Yes, there will be recording, just like with previous Educas. -- Best regards, Ondřej Caletka, RIPE NCC

"Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 11.2 or above." Thanks for not letting me participate. We can discuss if using IPv4 only tools is a good idea or not but using something that requires Flash Player in 2020 is certainly not a good idea. As someone how is taking IT security serious and as a Linux User I fell discriminated.

I may mistaken, but as far as I can tell (besides I still have flash installed :/) that is not used... Shouldn't there be an indicator icon that flash is used? I'm using firefox 76 on a Ubuntu 18 LTS. As Ondřej wrote, I think I'm also using html5. In the media section I see no flv or similar resource.

Hello Jens, I'm very sorry about that. We have enabled HTML5 version of Adobe connect and were under impression that it would allow anybody to participate with just a browser. But today, I tested joining from my Linux and ChromeOS laptops and it turned out Adobe connect somehow evaluates User-agent string and offers HTML5 version only if your browser and operating system is approved. I only succeeded to connect to HTML5 version from Linux when I had my Firefox emulate Chrome on Windows. We will definitely reconsider using Adobe connect for next event. This event will be recorded and the recording will be published on an IPv6-ready platform that doesn't enforce Flash, so you will be able to at least follow the recordings. I know it's not as good as following the event live, but that's everything I can offer you right now :( -- Best regards, Ondřej Caletka RIPE NCC

Another tip for Linux users: there are Adobe connect apps for Android and iOS so you can try to follow the event on a mobile device. -- Ondřej Caletka RIPE NCC

For what it is worth, I had the same problem, but solved it by installing Windows 10 (which can be downloaded for free nowadays) in a throwaway virtual machine. Hardly ideal, but it works. If you're quick you'll have time to do install it in the lunch break and catch the afternoon session. Tore
