Heard that they are somewhat picky about who they AAAA-enable. Our campus has had native IPv6 everywhere and upwards all the way to Geant for many years. We are thinking of applying in the hopes that it will boost IPv6 usage. Did you have any trouble getting them to IPv6-enable you? Anyone from Google in the list with any informative comment?
We have one hop in between (the german NREN), haven't had any issues getting it enabled. bschmidt@lxbsc01:~$ traceroute6 -q1 www.google.com traceroute to www.google.com (2001:4860:a005::68) from 2001:4ca0:0:f000:211:43ff:fe7e:3a76, port 33434, from port 38962, 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 vl-23.csr1-2wr.lrz-muenchen.de (2001:4ca0:0:f000::1) 0.612 ms 2 xr-gar1-te1-3-108.x-win.dfn.de (2001:638:c:a003::1) 0.429 ms 3 zr-fra1-te0-7-0-1.x-win.dfn.de (2001:638:c:c043::2) 8.273 ms 4 de-cix20.net.google.com (2001:7f8::3b41:0:1) 8.202 ms 5 2001:4860::34 (2001:4860::34) 20.122 ms 6 2001:4860:a005::68 (2001:4860:a005::68) 20.691 ms If you are only connected to GEANT your mileage will vary, as GEANT doesn't peer themselves there will be at least one additional hop in between (GBLX most likely). I think they want a decent path and a usable backup path, not sure whether Telia (the second Geant transit) is ready yet. I'd suggest you just try to contact them. Bernhard
