v6 proof of life

it's been a while since i looked at the query stream still hitting
{rbl,dul}.maps.vix.com. this was the world's first RBL but it was
renamed from maps.vix.com to mail-abuse.org back in Y2K or so. i
have not sent anything but NXDOMAIN in response to one of these
queries for at least ten years, yet the queries just keep coming.

here's a histogram of source-ip. feel free to remove yourself :-).
it's just a half hour sample. i'll put this up on a web page soon.

importantly and happily, there's a great deal of IPv6 happening here.

Which is reaffirming what many have said for a while: it'll be the
server-to-server traffic that will first peak. It's just going to take
the client-server relationships years to catch up. Every time I look at
my maillogs I've found there is quite a bit of v6 happening. But the
web logs show almost nothing.

There was some additional research done by Geoff Houston indicating that if you exposed tunnel capable hosts (that were able to reach IPv6 literals) you had something closer to 20% IPv6 connectivity.

I'm already excited about traffic levels and patterns in less than 24 hours. Will be interesting to observe.

See if you can reach this even if you don't have native IPv6…

I am seeing about 33% of our DNS traffic from one server over v6 but
admittedly a lot of this is to the root servers that return A records
for various domains. But the number of domains with v6 capable DNS
servers is rising.

Other way around here... pushing 2% external web traffic by IPv6, but only about 0.2% of mail traffic, and that would be lower if some of our users weren't on various IETF mail lists.

How can 2001:db8::/32 reach your machines ?

Sometimes more than 25% of the traffic in our webserver is v6

  Haven't time to check the details about URLs, countries, user-agents but I am working on it.

Lack of ingress filtering on Mr. Vixie's part, and lack of egress filtering on whoever-owns-those-Supermicro-board's part.
  That's not to say there's a route back, by any means.

indeed. i had no idea.

and lack of egress
filtering on whoever-owns-those-Supermicro-board's part.

i'll bet i'm not alone in seeing traffic from this prefix. as a rootop
i can tell you that we see plenty of queries from ipv4 rfc1918 as well.
