We won't be disabling IPv4 on relays any time soon. The RIPE grant covers IPv6 address autodetection and self-testing. If the feature is reliable enough, we may turn on IPv6 on dual-stack relays by default. (When autodetection and self-testing both pass.) We don't have any plans to disable IPv4 on relays. We'd need most relays to be dual-stack first. (Or we'd need research about privacy in non-clique networks.) And we'd need to write code that allows relays to turn off IPv4. When that's all deployed, we would have to make an engineering decision about the capacity of current IPv4-only relays, and the potential capacity of IPv6-only relays. One possible transition strategy is to allow IPv6-only bridges and exits. But to do that, we need more dual-stack guards and middles. That's why we are improving support for dual-stack relays with this funding. T |
