hi,
So, running a natively ipv6 machine on CentOS comes with the problem that there are no published ipv6 mirrors in our mirrorlist's - we know about a few ipv6 mirrors, and it should be possible to extend our testing stuff to cover them.
Whats the best way to handle this situation ? Am I the only one running native ipv6 at the moment.... is there someway we can gauge what the use-case-density for AAAA mirrorlist.centos.org is at the moment ?
should we do the dns record, vhost a static list if we must, of a few ipv6's and see what the hit-rate is ?

I have a server of tests I can form, it for support in HTTP and FTP in ipv6
[root@sun ~]# ping6 centos.nitcom.com PING centos.nitcom.com(2a01:48:202:2004::2) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 2a01:48:202:2004::2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=63 time=77.6 ms 64 bytes from 2a01:48:202:2004::2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=63 time=307 ms 64 bytes from 2a01:48:202:2004::2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=63 time=49.6 ms

Karanbir, definitely IPV6 is the must. I can help with testing, since we have own IPV6 subnet. Maybe I'm wrong but IPV6/IPV4 enabled machines are going to try IPV6 mirrors first. So I'm not sure about the hit-rate precision. Regards, David Hrbáč

Hi Karanbir
We run on native ipv6 both in production and at home thanks to my progressive isp (cheers Andrews and Arnold) so would be interested in this. I think it would be good for CentOS to get ahead of the curve on this.
best wishes
