Description

The HEPiX IPv6 Working Group has been encouraging the deployment of IPv6 in WLCG and elsewhere for many years. At the last HEPiX meeting in November 2024 we reported on the status of our GGUS ticket campaign for WLCG sites to deploy dual-stack computing elements and worker nodes. Work on this has continued. We have also continued to monitor the use of IPv4 and IPv6 on the LHCOPN, with the aim to identify uses of legacy IPv4 data transfers and to remove these. A dual-stack network is not the desirable end-point for all this work; we continue to plan the move from dual-stack to IPv6-only.
