Description Jasper Deng 2013-11-16 03:12:03 UTC
Wikimedia's sponsored server, dickson.freenode.net, currently has only IPv4 support, but I don't see any reason why IPv6 should not be enabled for the server, given that the network's overall IPv6 support is pretty robust and the software support for it.

https://rt.wikimedia.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6326 is apparently related according to the word of Reedy™
Comment 2 Leslie Carr 2013-11-19 23:10:47 UTC
this is something that I need to set up.  Please bug me if not done in the next 2 weeks.  Lower priority than Datacenter RFP

Hhm, the routing still isn't working (or did the IPv6 address change from 2620:0:861:52:208:80:155:68 to something else and the DNS wasn't updated?)
Comment 4 Leslie Carr 2013-12-15 00:02:18 UTC
Sorry, I forgot to update this ticket. 

The IPv6 is ready from WMF's point of view, we are waiting fro freenode to change the IP on the box.
Comment 5 Jasper Deng 2013-12-15 00:05:43 UTC
Hhm, the address must've changed then, since 2620:0:861:52:208:80:155:68 is still unreachable by tracer(ou)t(e)
Comment 6 Jasper Deng 2013-12-15 00:25:27 UTC
Oh right, THEY have to change the IP. My bad.

Leslie: Are we still waiting for Freenode here?
Comment 8 Jasper Deng 2014-03-30 09:12:03 UTC
For the record, it seems to have been done. dickson.freenode.net has been IPv6-enabled for quite a while now. Thanks to Leslie (especially since she left the foundation shortly after this bug - and before Andre's comment, in fact) for getting this done!
