Re: IPv6 addresses for Microsoft Office 365 hosted domains?
On a related note, I'm in the process of setting up mail for our new domain, and Office365 was one of the options. I was surprised to see that Office 365 hosted domains have only one MX, which resolves to only two IPv4 addresses: visser@cajones:~$ host geant-org.mail.protection.outlook.com. geant-org.mail.protection.outlook.com has address 213.199.154.87 geant-org.mail.protection.outlook.com has address 213.199.154.23 Both sit in the same network, which seems like a bad idea. Unless this is anycast? Can't tell from here. However, MS seems to have changed things recently: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tzink/archive/2014/10/28/support-for-anonymous-inbound-email-over-ipv6-in-office-365.aspx Better late than never. The alternative for e-mail is Google Apps, which has IPv6 for years.

But when I check the MX record of the target domain I see there's no for the redacted.mail.eo.outlook.com, just three A's. Fortunately we control our local business customer's DNS and I've added in our email server's DKIM so that future emails, if they were sent over IPv6, should be accepted by Microsoft. Our customer has no SPF record. I also saw two log messages for two Microsoft Office 365 hosted domains: 26 13:30:59.00 [56882563] Failed :::199.120.69.25 notification+kyg2k...@facebookmail.com target domain1 email redacted 9259 1502549920004098-1497189607206...@groups.facebook.com [:::199.120.69.25] ubad=0, Site (target domain1 redacted/2a01:111:f400:7c10::1:10) said: 550 5.2.1 Service Unavailable, [target domain1 redacted] does not accept email over IPv6 26 19:04:52.00 [83985160] Failed :::12.43.166.20 from redacted target domain2 email redacted 6546 0EBCBB96763E41B2A4CD9A4CD3DD94BE@sp.local [:::12.43.166.20] ubad=1, Site (target domain2 email redacted/2a01:111:f400:7c0c::11) said: 550 5.2.1 Service Unavailable, [target domain2 email redacted] does not accept email over IPv6 There's no PTR for 2a01:111:f400:7c10::1:10. I checked the last 7 days of logs I only saw these today. It's like Microsoft published some 's for some MX records, but then withdrew them, but not before there were a few failures.

So, time for some real action?
http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/blog/2013/12/campaign-turn-off-ipv4-on-6-june-2014-for-one-day/ I fully support this idea. But I'm in doubt what to actually do on 6 June. There isn't much benefit in turning off IPv4 on client devices in our office, because we already have a good idea what will work and what won't. Turning off IPv4 on all internet facing services would be better, because it will point out any IPv6 connectivity problems that visitors have. In that case, I can go about this in several ways. Doing it through (low TTL + removal of A records) gives you less control over things. If you block IPv4 access at the service level (filtering/ACLs), then it's easier to restore things. Maybe some intermediate solution, such as serving up an explanation page to IPv4 users? Other ideas? -- Dick Visser System Networking Engineer TERENA Secretariat Singel 468 D, 1017 AW Amsterdam The Netherlands
Re: So, time for some real action?
I know there are different opinions on this. But between black and white there are many shades of grey. That's why I was asking. I know that some stuff will break, I'm looking for ways to put this 'breakage' to positive use.

Re: 'Upgrading' NAT64 to 464XLAT?
Well, to be honest that wasn't even clear to me ;-) I just am reading up on the RFC and it looks like it doesn't have to be on the end host necessarily: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6877#section-6.5 Time for me to read the rfcs in their entirety On 25 November 2013 15:22, Eric Vyncke (evyncke) evyn...@cisco.com wrote: Dick 464XLAT is contained within a host, so, you will need an implementation for all your end host (laptop, tablets, ...)

This seems to work well, but it doens't work for everything (e.g. Skype etc). If those apps were working, it would be possible to actually use if for production. I was reading about 464XLAT, and from what I understand, this is more or less NAT64, but with some sort of local (RFC1918) IPv4 in the mix. For phones this is done using a special daemon that provides a local IPv4 address. I'd like to 'upgrade' out existing NAT64/DNS64 setup to do 464XLAT, but there aren't many docs about how to set 464XLAT to begin with. I've seen https://sites.google.com/site/tmoipv6/464xlat, and I asked around here and there. A schema with actual addresses would be nice, but I can't find that. Since we have an office set-up with, I assume I should configure the IPv6-only VLAN so that RFC1918 addresses are handed out on it as well? What I don't understand, if a device gets an RFC1918 IPv4 address, and a global IPv6 address, how would it be possible that apps that support IPv6-only use the IPv6 path? I can imagine that some applications still prefer to take the IPv4 path?

Avoiding EUI64 addresses on Ubuntu 12.04
Hi I'm trying to configure an Ubuntu 12.04 Server VM with static IP addresses.
