O1.5 - Measure the number of connections, and consumed bandwidth, using IPv4 and IPv6

See Proposal 313: Relay IPv6 Statistics: https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/313-relay-ipv6-stats.txt

The child tickets are in proposal section order, but they will probably be implemented in this order:

Pre-Implementation Bugs:

  • Fix: Tor relays ignore some local bytes in their statistics
  • Diagnose: ConnDirectionStatistics is off by default, but most relays report it

Dependencies:

  • (None)

Implementation:

  • Collect IPv6 Bandwidth Stats on Relays and Bridges
  • Collect IPv6 Connection Stats on Relays
  • Update Directory Spec for IPv6 Stats

Internal Testing:

Public Tor Network Testing:

  • Test IPv6 Stats on the Tor Network

Metrics Analysis:

  • Analyse and Monitor IPv6 Stats
