Is there a list of 6to4 relays?
I'm curious.
Also, I'm also curious to know if ISPs in Europe (which are more advanced in
IPv6 deployment) have experienced the same issues?
Sprint has one which is absolutely horrible (or was a year or two ago).
I'd recommend any and every ISP to setup a 6to4, even if it runs over a
v6 tunnel to HE. Accidentally getting one from someone else can give you
exceptionally broken 6to4 connectivity. Being anycast, I'd say
routeviews might be a good place to check for some, but often times they
are hidden within the networks they serve.
That being said, 6to4 itself is often horrible. It works fine if you are
talking 6to4 direct to the remote site (vs using a relay), but relays
often break and are hard to troubleshoot due to their nature.
In the last year, my 6to4 tunnel has peaked at 6.44mb/s (1day average)
but more common peaks are 150-250kb/s (5min average).
My tunnel to he.net was running 4-8 times that including the 6to4 relay
serving all my customers + native traffic for 15 hosts and 2 servers.
It's hard to get accurate on recent traffic loads as much of my v6
traffic shifted to dual stacked peers and I don't have a method of
separating the v4/v6 traffic in the graphs (me thinks it's time to test
ipv6 over mpls).
