      Hello Richard,              On Monday February 19 2018 10:18, you wrote to me:               MV>> My SamKnows probe seems to have been upgraded to IPv6.

Many, many years ago: https://samknows.com/       This is my second one. The first box had 100 Mbps ports. I asked for an       upgrade when they started issuing boxes with 1000 Mbps ports.               RM> Have you paid for it??              No.               RM> Indeed it is pingable:        RM> fido@odroid:~$ ping6 2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:b3ff:fede:4f52        RM> PING 2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:b3ff:fede:4f52(2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:        RM> b3ff:fede :4f52 ) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from        RM> 2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:b3ff:fede:4f52: icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=115 ms        RM> 64 bytes from 2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:b3ff:fede:4f52: icmp_seq=2        RM> ttl=52 time=108 ms -+- 2001:1c02:1100:d700:6666:b3ff:fede:4f52 ping        RM> statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time        RM> 1001ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 108.826/112.219/115.613/3.409 ms              Thanks for testing.              Later:              I just received an e-mail from them in response to my question if they       actually do something with IPv6. This is the answer:              ======              Ati (SamKnows)              19 Feb, 10:23 GMT              Hi Michiel,              Thanks for getting in touch.              As of yet, we have not adopted ipv6 tests. We report the ipv6 address if the       Whitebox receives it, but we don't really do anything with it.              Kind regards,              Ati       The SamKnows Team              ======                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)    |
