RIPE NCC - World IPv6 Launch Measurements
See also: World IPv6 Day Measurements (2011-06-08) - RIPE Atlas IPv6 Reachability test (LIRs only) - IPv6 Eye Chart - World IPv6 Launch ISOC pages - Test IPv6 - Netalyzr
The RIPE NCC will perform ongoing measurements related to World IPv6 Launch, which takes place on 6 June 2012.
As a part of this effort, we will monitor many of the participating websites from a number of vantage
points:
- Nodes of the RIPE NCC Test Traffic Measurements platform
- Nodes of the Archipelago Measurement Infrastructure, kindly contributed by CAIDA
- Nodes contributed by partners and other infrastructures, such as RIPE Atlas
From these vantage points, our monitoring effort periodically checks:
- DNS entries — to check whether the World IPv6 Launch participants have A/AAAA records
- Round Trip Times (RTTs) using ping/ping6
- Forward path discovery using traceroute and traceroute6
- HTTP page fetches — over IPv4 and IPv6 when available
For the IPv6 Launch event, we've been measuring 60 participants
from 53 vantage points, and we have executed 18,049,214 measurements
between May 19 (00 UTC) and June 18 (00 UTC) 2012.
