For the life of me, I have no idea what this is about. It was a BBC headline here in the UK but there is absolutely no interest from anyone in the UK at all.

For the life of me, I have no idea what this is about. It was a BBC headline here in the UK but there is absolutely no interest from anyone in the UK at all. No ISP focus, nothing.
I would rather like IPv6 but I don't know why.
(I do understand OSI model, IPv6 thoroughly, played with 6to4 and my Windows 7 boxes talk to each other with v6 etc but I just don't get IPv6 day).

- lostbit 15y agoToday, big Internet portals are supposed to resolve to AAAA (IPv6) DNS queries in their main site. Thus, if your computer is enabled, it should try to access it using IPv6. It's also a good chance to see if AAAA responses to any machine (IPv6 or not) would cause any trouble in their OS or applications. It's also some type of marketing to make the crowd aware about it. Many companies may have started on IPv6 because there was a day dedicated to test it.
