IPv6 “Ripeness”: the hard numbers on ISPs and deployment rates
21 Jul 2010
As the unallocated IPv4 address pool runs out, are Internet Service Providers (ISPs) actually deploying IPv6?
This graph, the first in a series from RIPE Labs, looks at the IPv6 “ripeness” of all ISPs registered as RIPE NCC members. We created a rating system that gives ISPs up to four “stars” for IPv6 services that they provide, based on the following criteria:http://www.ipv6actnow.org/wp-admin/post-new.php?preview=true
• The ISP has an IPv6 allocation
• The address prefix is actually routed on the Internet
• A route6 object is registered in the RIPE Database
• Reverse DNS has been set up
