RIPE NCC - World IPv6 Day Measurements

The RIPE NCC performed ongoing measurements related to World IPv6 Day, which took place on 8 June 2011. As a part of this effort, we monitored many of the participating websites from a number of vantage points:


From these vantage points, our monitoring effort periodically checked:

  • DNS entries — to check whether the World IPv6 Day participants had A/AAAA records
  • RTT distances using ping/ping6
  • Forward path discovery using traceroute and traceroute6
  • HTTP page fetches — over IPv4 and IPv6 when available


For this event, we've been measuring 60 participants from 53 vantage points, and we have executed 6,651,575 measurements between June 1-12, 2011.
