Google enables IPv6 on YouTube
January 31st 2010 by Japje

Google has started to initiate the enabling of their Youtube site over IPv6.
It is currently available to participants in their Google over IPv6
program, http://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/ .


The www.youtube.com user interface so far does *not* have any AAAA
published, but the *much* more important (traffic wise) image and video
servers do.


:~$ host s.ytimg.com
s.ytimg.com is an alias for static.cache.l.google.com.
static.cache.l.google.com has address 74.125.13.213
static.cache.l.google.com has IPv6 address 2001:4860:4001:402::15

 

:~$ host v1.lscache1.c.youtube.com
v1.lscache1.c.youtube.com is an alias for v1.lscache1.l.google.com.
v1.lscache1.l.google.com has address 74.125.97.80
v1.lscache1.l.google.com has IPv6 address 2001:4860:4001:402::10
