It's been an interesting few threads on IPv6 the past few days and given all the excitement I find it odd that nobody has mentioned that http://v6ix.nzix.net/peers.html returns a 404.
That's really got nothing to do with who peers - it's indicative of the fact that there's so little interest that we haven't needed to complete the automation work of the making this page work. More relevant is a list of the actual IPv6 peering table: *> 2001:500::/48 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 23755 9560 23710 3557 i *> 2001:7fa:3:1::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:2::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:3::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:4::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:5::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:a626::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:3:ca07::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:4:1::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 23755 ? *> 2001:7fa:4:c0cb::/64 2001:7fa:3:ca07::9 0 23755 ? *> 2001:e20::/32 2001:7fa:3:ca07::116 0 0 17435 i *> 2001:4401:2::/48 2001:7fa:3:ca07::6e 0 0 23905 i *> 2001:4410::/32 2001:7fa:3:ca07::6 0 0 23754 i *> 2001:4428::/32 2001:7fa:3:ca07::f5 0 18119 i Total number of prefixes 14
Seems to me that's there many complaining about the lack of interest in IPv6 and even more pontificating about what needs to happen to ensure IPv6 takes off, but a distinct lack of people actually trying to do something about it.
We've had the internal discussion at CityLink about turning the V6IX off due to lack of interest. I suspect that no one would really give a toss! The transit link we provide between to link the V6 exchange together runs at a steady 225 bps - yes bits per second!
