Request for Information - IPv6 Routing Table Snapshots
Hello Everyone: I am requesting the assistance of operators who are receiving full IPv6 routing tables from upstream, transit providers. If you could send me a copy of your full IPv6 table, as plain text or whatever format best suits, I would be sincerely grateful. I am doing some preliminary work on a potential NANOG presentation regarding the differences in IPv6 routing tables presentation from various "large" transit providers, because I've seen some oddities in announcement variations between several of them and want to dig deeper. Sadly, I only have two v6 transit providers, although I've had a third in the past and will again in the near future, so I will have 3 tables to compare. It would be good to have as many sample objects as possible. Please note this isn't a matter of looking at the global routing table from a looking glass - I'm interested to see what each provider is presenting to their customer, and extrapolating internal policies and potential pitfalls in the future as IPv6 is deployed in earnest. I have tables from NTT, TWTC and HE already. If you could add to this I would be grateful. Please feel free to contact me directly with any questions or concerns as well.

Thanks Joel. 15 active peers, by the way. Perhaps now is a good time to plug connecting to the v6 Route Views server... Regards, Mike
