teor: > Here are the log entries I'd like to see: Does tor log any warning if IPv6Exit is set to 1 and the resulting descriptor will not contain any ipv6-policy line? If that is not the case then this might makes sense to add such a log entry because it would help the operator to understand that his intention (IPv6Exit 1) is not achieved - for whatever reason. If this is indeed a bug then you might get some reports with such a warning message in the logfile (at least from operators looking at their logs). >> Do exits do any outbound IPv6 reachability test before they create their >> descriptor?

Ok, so there are no requirements beyond ExitPolicy + IPv6Exit. So a relay without IPv6 connectivity could also get an ipv6-policy line into his descriptor to test this. >> I also had a look at the tor_version column but there was no correlation >> there. >> That said there _is_ a correlation with as_name, so maybe this not a bug >> but operators only enabling IPv6 exiting on specific hosters (which >> seems strange because I only list IPv6 enabled relays). > Some providers may require certain port configurations, which could > cause the issue. Do you mean physical port configuration? Since they have an IPv6 ORPort their IPv6 (inbound) connectivity should be working I guess.
