The document summarizes statistics on IPv6 traffic from an internet exchange point before, during, and after an IPv6 launch day event. It shows that IPv6 traffic increased by 50% on the day, and remained at the higher level of 2.9 Gbit average traffic over subsequent weeks and months. While IPv6 traffic is still low at 0.5% of total traffic, the graphs of IPv6 traffic patterns match those of IPv4, indicating its use has become permanent rather than temporary.
