that's what I've mentioned(?) before: These issues occur at a reasonably
large scale, so they need to be handled by first, or at most second,
level support.  But show me any first level supporter able to diagnose
that, or even understand what a tcpdump is or what it means.  They
simply don't have a chance.

Aimlessly beating at the problem until the customer shuts up (no matter
if his problem is solved or he just gave up) is pretty much all they can
do.  But that doesn't mean that you want to rely on that sort of setup.

to my knowledge that won't help in any way with their STUN/SIP
problems.  It will also add to latency.  And if Jan's setup gets
overloaded, then the overall result won't help them any.

But I'll point them that way next time I get into such a situation.

I came across this recently (my ISP now provides native IPv6 + DS-lite
IPv4), and after debugging it, found that the CPE device was reporting
an incorrect path MTU when receiving a DF packet that was larger than
the tunnel interface to the AFTR.

This caused UDP IPv4 OpenVPN tunnels to stall and die horribly. I worked
around it by overriding the link-mtu config in OpenVPN.

But in this case, it was the CPE, not the AFTR, causing the problem.

(Of course I sent the ISP tcpdumps and a full analysis pointing out to
them that the firmware in the CPE they provided me was broken. They
decided to fix it by sending me a different model of CPE. I doubt they
ever escalated it to actually fix the underlying problem in the original
CPE. But if you happen to have a Technicolor TC7200, be wary of its
DS-Lite implementation!)

Benedikt,

An idea: Next time you meet the folks encountering the problems, suggest them 
to google for "go6 nat64" and configure their resolver to one of Jan's NAT64 
test DNS64s, and then turn off IPv4 on their host completely.

If their life gets better it will be a very interesting and useful data point.

sorry I haven't got the time right now to review RFC6269 for what's
exactly mentioned there and what isn't, but: When I do IPv6 trainings
these days it's about one in eight who is struggling with their land
line access, which is based on DS-Lite and which reasonably well matches
the estimated percentage of DS-Lite on land lines.  The problems are
however of a somewhat different nature than what RFC6269 addresses; they
are roughly these:

- Various services don't work.  Like STUN, and due to that, SIP.  And
  apparently various VPN solutions, too, but I never got access to any
  details with this.  The real culprit here seems to be restricted cone
  NAT in the AFTR, plus apparently IPsec not working through DS-Lite.

- There have been multiple reports that during peak hours there are

  I don't have access to the AFTRs involved, so I can't reliably tell
  what's happening there, but from the descriptions I got it looks like
  some of them are actually running out of memory/CAM during peak hours

  too, since the ISPs won't spend significant money on AFTR hardware
  until problems have already shown up.

- First level support is frequently completely helpless when confronted

  The most annoying aspect here is that frequently it comes across that
  "it's a problem with IPv6" and "if you keep complaining they'll switch

All the information I have here is largely based on anecdotal reports,

That's going to be difficult.  If you run a service for money, making it
v6only will cost you a lot of market share, so everybody still needs to
support IPv4 in that kind of business.  You can only expect that on
sites run without regard for money by some hyperenthusiastic hobbyists.
And frequently enough, enthusiasm is a bad substitute for competence.

Things change drastically however if you talk about internal networks.
There you can at least sometimes only make the servers dual stacked but
connect the bulk mass of clients to either v4 or v6 only.

No, don't give up.  Try to be nice so they don't hold a grudge against
you when the time comes, and then renegotiate your terms.

Just make sure they don't blame you for not telling them.  Sounds crazy,
but that's how people sometimes tick: You tell them to watch out, they
ignore you, things blow up in their face, so you should've warned---and
protected---them, because after all you already knew beforehand.

When do people go to the dentist?  When they can't stand the pain
anymore.  Or put differently: "As far as I can tell, everything works
for me.  So why should I allocate some of my limited resources to this?"
>From a technically challenged business perspective it makes perfect
sense.

In some cases you might reason that fixing your WiFi takes at least
three months (or whatever), will be necessary without prior warning,
will incur significant extra cost and most importantly, also a
loss/reduction of service lasting three months.

Or put another way: If you wait until you notice that you're losing
money, then you'll lose money.

However: In most organizations management has got so used to being lied
to with similar claims that they'll simply trust their own "experience".
In other words: "As far as I can tell, everything works for me."  Makes
it rather hard to be heard.

These days, when I'm in the mood and I'm talking to the right people, I

I'm still not sure if it was a smart decision.  But the first time I

problem between you and your ISP."  Telling that to users who have been

And then there are those network projects that claim they support IPv6
but actually only do "IPv4 with longer addresses".  But that's the real
problem: There's a painful shortage of people who know about networking
in general, but with IPv6 it's absolutely hopeless.  There aren't even

I can't hear it anymore.

Sometimes IT is a world full of surprises and magic. Puff and it
1999. Oh year 2000 is coming[1]. Puff and the support for Windows XP[2]
ends. Puff and there are only few IPv4 addresses left. Puff and many
access providers are doing some form of large scale NAT and maybe
IPv6. Puff and the solution we bought last year doesn't support
IPv6. But we need IPv6 now.

About two years ago there was a large German VoIP provider complaining
that all these evil German cable providers had started using IPv6. They
wrote about it in an their BLOG. There were about 70 comments in the
form of "Why don't you just provide IPv6?"

There was a lot of time to see that IPv6 is coming. There are still
networking projects today that are not build with IPv6 in mind[3].

Just my 2 cents.

Jens

[1] I attended an IT training in 1999 and the trainer ask "Anybody of
you know COBOL? I told a customer about 20 years about y2k. He called
last week."

[2] Just mentioning this because I was hired by an Insurance company to
do IPv6 consulting while some people behind my were managing the
transition from XP to Windows 7.

[3] "We never will need IPv6" or "We can add this later" are the most

it is indeed.  But banks are more IT-savvy and more security aware than
most other enterprises, so while the market is growing, it still is
surprisingly (and frustratingly) small.

But it takes time for the word to spread, and more often than not people
mistake IPv6 for the actual problem, rather than IPv4 over DS-Lite etc.

This is another one of those weird things.  The CDNs to my knowledge
just got it up and running, but why on earth are the cloud providers
lagging behind?  With regard to networking they are doing pretty much
the same: They host some customers stuff and make sure it is accessible
from around the world.

Hmm.

It is starting. I know of one bank that is enabling IPv6 on their online 
banking to avoid NAT444/DS-Lite/etc problems. For them the major problem is 
that their fraud detection algorithm can't do their work properly if everybody

on a more serious note: That wouldn't actually be all bad, but it's the
rather shortsighted manner of doing so.

Considering the increasing reports of people having problems with
DS-Lite I still hope that at some point organizations providing content
(like webshops or such) will realize that they have to go IPv6.  What I
find plain weird is that the cloud providers don't realize this as a
huge chance to get (and lock-in...) customers who need an IPv6 solution
on short notice.


Cheers,

Benedikt

if not that, then what else could we suggest without risking to be told
"sir, I suggest you walk" next time you want to fly somehwere?

Shouldn't that be "have you disabled IPv4 on something today...?"?

Not very likely. In most cloud environments I've been exposed to Business
is the sole-driver to change.
Likewise when we are looking at billing-models per-hour-per-unit billing is
effectively now turning your technical problems into business problems.

As long as there is no major near-zombie-apocalypse business-driver for
IPv6. We will continue enjoying the services and environments we deserve...

Pass me the drain-cleaner. I too need a drink!

This will help clean IPv4 out of the clouds?

*So* much space in the cloud for long IPv6 addresses!
