IPv6 resolvers updated, we now have two: http://support.arpnetworks.com/faqs/main/dns-servers
note the ::7 changed to ::a
(for those using the beta resolver)
ns2 should have IPv6 glue within 24 hours
nice... decided to do both 1 and 2 then?
yup
I bought parallels this morning. Feels good to actually buy stuff nowadays :D
NS2.ARPNETWORKS.COM now has IPv6 glue as well
Awesome, Garry!
And, since Ice has IPv6, it would be kinda cool if irclogger could reflect that, maybe a CNAME?
wacker: like ipv6.ice.arpnetworks.com
?
changed it:
$ host 2607:f2f8:0:102::2
2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.0.1.0.0.0.0.0.8.f.2.f.7.0.6.2.ip6.arpa domain name pointer ipv6.ice.arpnetworks.com.
now I need to get [FBI] to connect over v6
we just had an ipv6 discussion on the voip users conference call
RandalSchwartz: cool
95 days to go now
my recent tweet: Proposal: reserve EA47::/16 ipv6 addresses to enumerate all the grains of sand that would fill the earth (EA47h :)
RandalSchwartz: you should really submit that to IANA ;)
I'm thinking of making an april 1 RFC
hah, nice
using wolfram alpha, I did log2(volume of earth/volume of grain of sand)
and it was 112
so that means 112 bits for enumeration
which is a ipv6 /16
then I came up with EA47 for prefix :)
right, exactly
up_the_irons: unlike the carrier pigeon rfc, enumerating the grains of sand on the earth is not pactically doable
I still don't get EA47h
well - we should reserve it for the future. :)
toddf: it spells "earth" in leet
E A 4(r) 7(t) h (hex)
ah
and it's not currently reserved. :)
so it'd be good to grab it now
I just wish the scps standard would have mandated v6, it was created after v6 was around for a while, it would be sad if the earth went v6 and all the legacy space stuff stayed v4, and there's infinately more usage for address space allocation/distribution/use throughout the rest of the universe
toddf: you think v6 will be enough for solar system expansion?
up_the_irons: since you seem to be on a v6 kicklately, when is console.cust going to go v6? ;-)
toddf: hah, good call; putting it on my TODO list now.  that's an easy one.
95 days. :)
fink: in our grandchildrens lifetimes, yes.. by then they'll have IPv64 with 1024 bits addresses
haha
while it is good in general to use the ipv4 depletion as a motivation, reality is once that passes we'll see a post y2k letdown that the internet still works and lots o people will not be v6 enabbled or ready
toddf: right, it'll just all take time
or is it
"[off]" this will not be logged. :)
I can never tell with quotes
up_the_irons: since you're taking requests or suggestions rather for v6 enabling services, graphs.arpnetworks.com should be another easy one
hah.
toddf: added graphs.arp, thanks
