Many African nations have made tremendous progress with their IPv6 deployments over the last few years.
By systematically measuring the DNS, we can improve our understanding of the Internet, find vulnerabilities, and provide data for informed decision-making.
The difference in scale between IPv4 and IPv6 is so vast that it’s difficult to represent clearly. Here’s one way to visualize it.
Understanding the limitations and fluctuations in data can help build a more reliable narrative about IPv6 adoption.
Studying off-net deployment strategies is crucial as they alter traditional Internet traffic flows and could be vital for next-generation technologies like 5G that require low latency.
In light of the 14th anniversary of the World IPv6 Launch this month, let’s look back at the last decade of IPv6 deployment.
Nearly all of Iran’s IPv6 address space vanished from the global routing table, dropping the country’s IPv6 adoption rate from 15—20% to 2%.
In 2023, the rate of IPv6 deployment increased the most it has since 2018, growing from 34% to 39% globally.
