IPv6 Over Level3 Down?
| Posted by kbeezie, 06-05-2012, 06:45 AM |
I have a personal VPS down in the Texas Location that appears to be having problems with IPv6 it doesn't seem to be host specific so wondering if something is up with level3.
For example using my tunneled IPv6 connection from He.net from home, as well as my dedicated server in Kansas City, Mo (which also happens to be over he.net IPv6 native), I can ping6/traceroute6 ipv6.google.com like so:
From Home:

So wondering if maybe there's some IPv6 routing issues over Level3 as I cannot seem to ping, connect, etc to my VPS via IPv6 |

I don't do too well with mailing lists seems like an odd means given the means of communications we have available to us today. (i.e.: forums are so much easier to follow and search). |
