For those of you who added IPv6 addresses to the production pool:
How much IPv6 traffic do you see to your servers now compared to the IPv4
traffic?
I don't have nice rrd graphs yet, but it's really negligible.
This is from a server that is in the de pool as 1000 mbit. As this is a
very old and well known server, it only gets a small percentage of its
requests through the ntp pool, so this might spoil the statistics below
a bit. It has however been offering IPv6 since 2009, so the ratio of
pool vs. non-pool requests should be pretty much the same for V4 and V6.
During a quick sample right now, I saw requests from only 180 different
IPv6 IPs in 30 Minutes. A large portion of those requests come from ::1
IPs that seem to be the same hosting provider subnet, so it's probably
just a few routers using a random source ip for requests.
In contrast, there are requests from >100000 different V4 IPs in 17 minutes.
