I'd love for some way to measure how much of my network's traffic outbound and inbound is IPv6. I assume there's some way to "count" it on the router, but Mikrotik doesn't seem to expose it directly.
In addition to NextDNS I have been running a firewall app on my android phone (which also points to NextDNS) and shows all this. Good easy way to get started. ReThinkDNS is the app I am currently using because it integrates some block lists well but there is also a more serious Android firewall app I may switch to.
iirc mikrotik supports netflow. that's how i account for proto balance. FWIW, owing to the nature of residential traffic, I've typically seen high (60-70% of traffic) as v6.
This is exactly why this isn't a good way to measure ipv6 adoption. For example, youtube supports ipv6; if you spend all day watching youtube, 80%+ of your traffic will be ipv6.
PiHole is actually pretty great for this. I set up some firewall rules in OpnSense to force all devices to use PiHole as a DNS server. Then log all queries.
You can see which clients are using ipv6 and how many queries there are. I would estimate that about 60% of iPhone traffic in my household (by far the busiest devices) is ipv6. We usually use big sites though like Reddit, twitter, google, etc.
And then there’s the Rokus that don’t support ipv6 at all. Considering how cheap they were it doesn’t really surprise me.
