Thank you for sharing this 🙌🫡🙇‍♂️
This is precisely why I find the topic interesting. People often debate protocol characteristics, while the measurements end up revealing routing characteristics.
The protocol is usually the easy part. The path is where things get interesting.
Identifying active IPv6 addresses helps assess deployment, reveal gaps, and detect vulnerable devices. Subnet-Router Anycast (SRA) probing removes the need for prior knowledge of address allocation.

Still treating BGP Router IDs like IPv4 addresses?
In #IPv6-only networks, they're simply 32-bit identifiers. @SwerNetworks@DaryllSwer shares structured, human-readable Router ID schemes that scale with modern networks.

I didn’t realize my tweet can be read both ways 🤣 I meant to let IPv4 die. There are good reasons for IPv6 in serious DC deployments (see several blog posts from AWS for example), and sooner or rather later, new setups will tilt towards IPv6. I want to believe.

Pulse Fellowship Research shows that the further you move from the initial domain into the dependency chain, the less likely you are to find #IPv6 support.
