Talk on the implications of deploying IPv6 for hosting platforms and developers.

Rough notes

  • Stats on incoming traffic from hosting providers
  • Stats on outgoing traffic from ISPs(?)
  • Percentage of sites running IPv6
  • Percentage of other services running IPv6

Problems

  • Adding AAAA records 'breaks' SSH.
  • Mail over IPv6 without SPF and DKIM stops delivery to large mail providers (e.g. Google).
  • If multiple protocols are available, which should be preferred? Linux seems to go for IPv6 first, but any which prefer IPv4 will never see the v6 service.
