What the hell is that? It’s my shiny new IPv6 address! Dreamhost makes it stupid easy to assign a IPv6 address to your account; just log into your panel, click on your domain, then just click Add IP Address and that’s it.
I also added an AAAA record for ipv6.andrewpeng.net to make sure to make the distinction for the IPv6 only subdomain, similar to ipv6.google.com and such. If you have IPv6 connectivity, go ahead and give it a try!
