This measures the amount of IPv6 traffic in relation to total global traffic per AS (autonomous system). Leader is Google Fibre with 70%, followed by Verizon Wireless with 40%. Free in France (the ones who created 6rd)  is number one in Europe with 31% and Swisscom has a high position too with 20%.

A graph below the table shows that from the worlds Top Alexa 1000 sites 12.5% are IPv6-enabled. We invite all operators of websites to dual-stack their Internet presence. This makes it more attractive for ISPs and organizations to activate IPv6. We at the Swiss IPv6 Council currently work on a survey with the Swiss Top Alexa 100 websites and hope to be able to provide some interesting news soon in the New Year.
