Thanks Nisha
Good morning
    I am worry by taking our problem in IPV4 when totally migrate to IPV6 , the ISP suffered from blacklist now in IPV4 , after the migrate to IPV6 complete do blacklist will be uniquely or it will be like what they did now a range of IPV4? 

Best regards,

yes.

that's dependent on the network infrastructure, and business decisions made, on the network behind him.
the right answer is maybe.  the more appropriate answer is: "probably not"

hint:  because something is technically possible, doesn't mean it *should* be done...

again, that's dependent on the underlying network infrastructure.
in general, if you can do this now, with IPv4, you should be able to do the same with IPv6.
because it's possible to have *unique* addresses in IPv6, it's potentially easier to do this in IPv6, than in cases where you are currently NATting in IPv4.

that's not really an IPv6, or technical problem...  ;-)

You might end up having to spy on your users to determine that.  The users might not like that.

Hello Imadeldeen Ellazim

As per our previous phone call here is the place wher you can have more inputs on your IPv6 issues..
Please do find inline my inputs

According to what you want to address here IEEE had a draft that you may want to read, On this draft titled "A Multipurpose Global Passport Solution using IPv6" in this IEEE draft, since every single thing of this world can have at least an IPv6 address, why not consider this possibility to assign and add an IP to a given person... find more details here:

The IEEE draft above can also address this issue

Subject: [afripv6-discuss] A note about Yahoo
To: "'IPv6 in Africa'" <afripv6-discuss at afrinic.net>

Hi All,

 

Recently it came to our attention that Yahoo had some rather severely broken
IPv6 on the servers that .za was diverting to.  NOTE: I do not know if this situation applies outside of South Africa since I'm not sure which servers Yahoo is redirecting other African users to.

 

Basically though, they added quad-a DNS records to all of their servers.
They then added the v6 addresses to their servers.  Only. they didn't configure their webservers to actually display the pages via IPv6.  So, if you browsed via IPv6 their webservers came back with a nice "This page can't be located" message.  Because the IPv6 connectivity itself worked, there was also no fallback to v4.

 

So, we queried Yahoo via their standard support channels. and received the most bizarre response I have ever seen, that summarized said "We don't support v6 on the frontend pages yet, we aren't going to remove the quad-a's, please tell your users to use ipv4.yahoo.com" 

 

Now, that's nothing short of insanity, especially when in our case, you're talking about telling 40 thousand+ students to use some other address to access Yahoo. 

 

At this point I escalated the issue to other people in Yahoo who seemed to have a fair bit more clue, and I've been informed that the issue should be resolved by sometime on Monday.  But this is a note to anyone using native
v6 and getting strange errors back from Yahoo, things are currently broken, and will only be fixed around Monday timeframe.

 

I have to say, kinda disappointed to see this from a company as large as Yahoo who did such a good job in the world v6 day in promoting v6, because this kinda thing really hurts the deployment of IPv6, it makes people scared to move ahead and it's not what we need.  At the same time, to the guys I eventually ended up being able to escalate to and who were helpful and attempted to assist me immediately, my sincere thanks.
