Hi Youssef,

My original reply wasn't sent to the Nanog list.

Team Cymru considers 2002::/16  and 192.88.99.0/24  to be legitimate
prefixes at this time, and will be not be adding them to our bogon
filters. Our interpretation of the 6to4 anycast rfc is that while these
are encouraged to be made obsolete, in practice they may still be in
use, excluding them from being universally defined as a bogon in our feed.

The RFC in question:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7526

The rule, as it always should be, is to know your network, and know what
is best for it.  As noted in the RFC you are encouraged to review any
current deployments and any existing filtering and adjust based on your
own discretion.

Regards,

Gary McArtor
Team Cymru

Gary, what are your thoughts?

Hello Job,

Thank you for this feedback. I guess that NTT adopting this as a best
practice will ring some bells around.

Do you know if Team Cymru has updated their filters accordingly ?

Best regards.

Dear alll,

Thank you all for your input. Just a heads-up - we deployed a few days ago.

NTT / AS 2914 now considers "2002::/16 le 128" and "192.88.99.0/24 le 32"
to be bogon prefixes, and no longer accepts announcements for these
destinations from any EBGP neighbor.

Kind regards,

Job

I think it's still used a bit ? I see today announcements over the following OriginAS over more than 2000 peers.

as1103    SURFnet bv
as1835    Forskningsnettet - Danish network for Research and Education
as2847    Kauno technologijos universitetas
as6939    HURRICANE
as16150   Availo Networks AB
as25192   CZ.NIC, z.s.p.o.
as28908   A3 Sverige AB

I'm pretty curious about customers impacts if your drop these anycast 6to4 prefixes from your RIB/FIB ;)

At home, I use HE.net tunnel broker, because no native IPv6 (yes we already lose matches against Belgium regarding IPv6 and ... beer) and a quick dump shows traffic to 2002:/16 :

sudo tcpdump -ni any 'net 2002::/16'
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on any, link-type LINUX_SLL (Linux cooked), capture size 262144 bytes 15:10:59.588097 IP6 2002:6bab:c6c6:0:e561:b9f7:b221:a73.51413 > 2001:470:1f12:dead::beef.51413: UDP, length 94 15:10:59.588233 IP6 2001:470:1f12:dead::beef.51413 > 2002:6bab:c6c6:0:e561:b9f7:b221:a73.51413: UDP, length 365

So I'm pretty sure it's still used when no IPv6 is available from an eyeball provider to mount a 6to4 tunnel over a provider that have well deployed IPV6 infrastructure. Perhaps some of the 6to4 tunnel can be tuned to not use anycast prefixes ?
