IPv6? #14
Comments
Yes, unfortunately But yes, if we need it, we could do it. Actually, we could update |
Thanks for the quick response. Glad to hear you already have an idea of how to implement support should the need for it increase, I was indeed planning how I might optimally merge IPv6 blocklists in the future. Is it OK to leave this issue open so I can be notified when the day comes or do you prefer 0 open issues? (I'm sure I'm years away from actually needing to worry even if the bad actors move to v6 sooner, so no worries if you prefer to close.) |
IPv6 blacklists still seem uncommon but there are a couple. http://www.blocklist.de/en/export.html has chosen to include both IPv4 and IPv6 together in the same lists, based on user feedback. IPv6 entries are not very common but do appear. SpamHaus now has a DROPv6 list, though it is generally rather short. And there is Team-Cymru that publishes a fullbogons list for each of IPv4 and IPv6. |
All list on ipdeny.com are now IPv6 as well (not really blocklist, but I use them to block some countries high in the security lists): http://www.ipdeny.com/blog/ipv6-blocks-are-ready-for-download/ And some others: https://www.myip.ms/files/blacklist/csf/latest_blacklist.txt (And as mentioned already, DROPv6 by spamhaus, which is already worth it on it's own). They all seem to be growing and including IPv6 more and more. I would say better to be early then late on this, as IPv6 is a nice "new" vector for nasty people to use, and if we cannot block it by the lack of tools (or knowledge), we are defenseless. Just my 2 cents. |
any news on this issue? ipv6 support would be really great to have! |
2020, almost 2021. |
It seems this project is dead… At least in this Repository. |
Another +1 for v6 support if anyone has the time... |
Yeah, IPv6 would be really nice. |
I was experimenting to see what happened if I fed iprange IPv6 addresses, somewhat predictably it failed like so:
Is there any long-term plan for some level of IPv6 support? For my personal use I'm not in any hurry but I can see how it might be useful to others. Obviously the problem space is exponentially larger, so I could also understand if the answer's "never" - useful to have in the issue list nonetheless for future searchers.
