IPv6 traffic increasing rapidly at DE-CIX

As you can see at the bottom of this page, IPv6 traffic has increased heavily over the past 2 weeks.
Was there something special or why did it increase that heavily?

Yes, Youtube enabled IPv6 as seen in their Blog.
The question is why there is almost no increase at AMS-IX.

Maybe because only a few people bothered to fix the DNS configuration.

I'm getting Google (and Youtube) over ipv6 just like expected after using the information in the link mentioned above.

I guess this could be true.
I am browsing Google over IPv6 at home as XS4all also resolves AAAA addresses for google just fine.
I hope more and more people (and ISPs) will be going to support IPv6 in the near future, so IPv6 traffic will start to increase even further.

Fixed my Ubuntu setup as well.
Had to add the following lines to my /etc/resolv.conf:
inet6
nameserver 2001:7b8:3:4f:202:b3ff:fe46:bec
The 'inet6' favors AAAA records when doing a hostname lookup.
For other Linux flavors it will likely be the same.

don't know - but my interest is intending to grow and so it is in my near field around... and when you discuss things - you know things are getting more interesting even on people who doesn't looked interested in the first place :)
