[AusNOG] Fw: Youtube-over-IPv6

[Craig Meyers]

I couldn't see any AAAA resolution for www.youtube.com or
ipv6.youtube.com. Even using google's DNS. (if you're keen see nslookup
dumps below)

There's AAAA records for ipv6.google.com but not www.google.com

Is the youtube content over ipv6 on a different url?

Google contridicts itself. On the url
"http://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/" it quotes that www.google.com AAAA
resolution is an IPv6 address only when using a "DNS resolver with
Google over IPv6".

But on "http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/faq.html" referring to
google's DNS resolver - "it does not yet support native ipv6 transport".

There's also a network/mac world article on youtube & ipv6:
http://www.macworld.com/article/146056/2010/02/ipv6_youtube.html

But no reference as to how one accesses the youtube content over ipv6.
Anyone able to access youtube over ipv6 yet?

Hello list,

thought you might want to know:

Google has quite recently enabled their Youtube content servers in the
Google over IPv6 program, http://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/ .

I do not want to steal their thunder, but this is great news everybody
should hear.

The effect of this is clearly visible in our IPv6 graphs at
http://stats.csbnet.se/public/ipv6/ , or more specifically
http://stats.csbnet.se/public/ipv6/csbnet-ipv6-traffictypes.html

Regards,
