Of all the measurement classes, only HTTP measurements must go to anchors. So yeah, breaking out data-plane deltas between endpoints is feasible. Emile's IXP-country-jedi stuff can pull together traceroute data and help visualise spatially the differences between v4 and v6 paths; example: http://sg-pub.ripe.net/emile/ixp-country-jedi/specials/2017-07-hackerspaces-de/geopath/index.html S. > *From: *ipv6-hackathon <ipv6-hackathon-bounces at ripe.net> on behalf of > "Stephen D.
