They hesitate to provide IPv6 to their users due to the fear of poor IPv6 performance. Network-based Happy Eyeballs (NHE) is proposed in this memo as an approach to facilitate ISPs to identify IPv6 connectivity issues and provide better connectivity to end users. NHE does accurate measurements and comparison on IPv6/IPv4 performance on the network side compared with client-side as in Happy Eyeballs v2 (HEv2) {[}RFC8305{]}. It works independently with client's adoption of HEv2 and both coexist without conflicting.
