Description
The transition to IPV6 has been a visible topic for more than 20 years and lots of energy has been expended at conferences. Most discussions have focused on IPv6 addressing but the DNS is just as essential to the proper functioning of the IPv6 internet. This talk will explore IPv6 readiness of the global DNS, including the long tail. A huge dataset of anonymized query traffic gathered from service providers around the world was categorized and queried with an IPv6 only resolver to check reachability. Results will reveal the state of the DNS for a very large number of domains, including popular domains.
