2012年6月6日に開催されるWorld IPv6 Launchに向けて、Linodeをご利用のお客様が参加できるように、IPv6を利用可能にするための努力をしてきました。このたび、世界の6つの拠点すべてでIPv6が利用可能になったことをお知らせします。
既存のLinodeにおいて IPv6 を有効にする場合、Linode マネージャのリモートアクセスタブをクリックし、"IPv6 を有効にする" リンクをクリックします。再起動すると、 Linode はネイティブ IPv6 アドレスが使用できます。新しい Linode や異なる場所に移行する Linode は自動的に IPv6 対応になります。
また、バックエンド Linode で実際に IPv6 を有効にしなくても、NodeBalancerを IPv6 エンドポイントとして使用できます。
詳細についてはIPv6 FAQ ページを参照してください。

This is great news! Also nice is that finally ns5.linode.com. (London) is available via IPv6, too, as of a few days ago!
Stellar news! Congrats to the Linode team for being ready for this epic day in history.
Can’t knock progress… although I have just added ipv6.disable=1 to my kern line due to dhcp issues with older routers, this stuff seems problematic as much as it is desperately required..

Interesting, I would of thought ipv6 the backend would be the most pragmatic first step?
Why is IPv6 important?
四天前我就已经在linode的东京节点上，用到ipv6了~~
Great news! Thanks for all your efforts!
So glad to hear that IPv6 will be coming soon!
Benjamin – not “soon”, “now”:
“We’re happy to announce that IPv6 is now available in all six of our locations across the world!”
Linode crew: thanks! I’m fully IPv6’d up now.
A STUN server requires two IPs. Does it make any sense to use the IPv6 IP as the second IP?
Cloud Computing which required reboots? Yeah. right.
So, with ipv6 now available…
We can technically enabled this on our linodes, and I have done this already last year for one of my VPN’s.
But how do I go about and test if ipv6 really works for my websites?
Is there a VPN we can connect to? Here on my location (Ecuador) ipv6 is no where near to be seen so from a simple home connection there is no way I can test if my server responses properly to ipv6 requests.
@rvt
Of course you can. Head to http://tunnelbroker.net/ and sign up for a free tunnel.
If you want the tunnel end-point to be at your router, you have two choices: Have or get an IPv6 capable router or if you have almost any Linksys router available, replace the original firmware with one from http://dd-wrt.com
Have fun.
Proactive as always!
This is awesome news!
Could you please post information about how much ipv6 traffic that your server centers now utilize, after this launch? It would be very interesting!
