Hi all, Recently I'm engaged in a project on the issue of IPv6 GeoIP for a large Internet company. IPv6 GeoIP is identified as an notable chanllge to mitigate their Geolocation-based application to IPv6. I come up with a idea to summarize the existing practice and propsed technologies into a information draft. I'm hoping relevant people can help to review it and share your insight on this issue.
I put it into my Github repo : https://github.com/songlinjian/dualstack-geoip/blob/master/dualstack-geoip.md .. Short abstract of this document : During IPv6 adoption, IPv6 GeoIP is identified as a challenge and speed bump for content and application operator. Some studies and operational experiences show that the accuracy of IPv6 GeoIP is relatively poor in comparison to their IPv4 counterparts. This memo introduces use cases and approaches to provide better IPv6 GeoIP based on an intuitive idea: if IPv6 GeoIP is not as good as IPv4 GeoIP, why not use dual-stack host's IPv4 GeoIP for IPv6 GeoIP purpose? I would like to ask : 1) Do you like it or not? Is this document valuable to be published in IETF? 2) If yes , which WG should it belong to? v6ops or dnsop 3) Is there any similar and relevant practice do you observe or operate now? What's the major challenges. Best regards, Davey
