But what do you do with the more and more common case[1] where one gets native IPv6 and IPv4-over-DSlite; especially considering the high rate of connection problem over that IPv4 path? This as the dslite gateways are heavily overloaded as most destinations (read: http/bittorrent) are IPv4 only. Will then Teredo be used which is broken or the perfectly working IPv6 native path? Getting out over native IPv6 in that specific scenario will be the better thing to do. >From that perspective, applying the Apple-variant of Happy Eyeballs will be beneficial. It will mean that one will have to expose all the possible IPv4 and IPv6 addresses amongst peers so that they can try out the variant combinations. SCTP or MP-TCP might be a good fit there too. [1] German ISPs like Unitymedia, which is part of UPC/LibertyGlobal and thus it is expected when that trial pans out that all other countries where UPC is located will be following down that rabbit hole too....
