Hello,

Please try now, I shutdown a peer that was advertising your prefix and I can
now reach you

ASTERIX#ping 3ffe:80b0:1001:1:260:5cff:fef3:610c

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 3FFE:80B0:1001:1:260:5CFF:FEF3:610C,
timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 276/356/636 ms

Regards,
Stuart
