About a year ago I started to discuss with GavleNet in Sweden about how they can best deploy native IPv6 for their fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) customers. GavleNet is a city network that operates in the municipalities of Gävle and Ockelbo. In this article, I discuss how we designed GavleNet's FTTH IPv6…

This article presents a software-based prototype able to estimate the most queried domain names in a stream of DNS traffic at 12Mpps (wire-rate 10GbE). The goal is to identify domains involved in random qname attacks. This prototype is a proof-of-concept of our research on software and commodity-ha…
