I root server doing IPv6
Last week, the I root DNS server turned on IPv6. Currently, it’s only enabled at the Stockholm node.
Here’s a Google Map showing locations of IPv6-enable DNS root servers. Global nodes are in red; local nodes in blue:
Almost all of the DNS roots now have at least some of their nodes IPv6-enabled. Unfortunately, they see very little traffic over IPv6. The H root, for example, sees only about 3% of their traffic over IPv6. This is an improvement over 2008, but it’s still depressing.
