Hurricane Electric have a presentation on testing their tunnels using Traceroute6, Tracepath6, and mtr: http://ipv6.he.net/presentations/trace6.pdf iperf now supports IPv6 and works well for testing tunnels as well. I have previously gotten good results from Hurricane Electric tunnels. -- Dan Sneddon Network Engineering & Network Security twitter | AS13414 dxs () twitter com | Follow me! @dansneddon On Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 11:16 AM, Anurag Bhatia wrote:
Hello, Does anyone here has clues on IPv6 support via Charter? We recently got BGP up on the connection and they denied for IPv6 support for now. Support engineer gave expected time of something like end of year which seems very late as per our plans. Is situation same for everyone who sits in downstream of Charter? Also, does it makes sense to go for BGP Tunnel for now? I just setup IPv6 Tunnel via Hurricane Electric. Latency seems pretty much OK ~ 10-15ms of overhead. Yet to test other parameters. I heard Tunnels are usually bad. Can someone tell how to test this tunnel setup to confirm if there is a performance issue or not? I am thinking of writing a quick bash script and run via cron to test latency, packet loss and bandwidth throughput for couple of days. If anyone has better idea, please let me know.
