Well kre was right and I was wrong. The solicitation is not sent from
the linklocal of the requesting box, but from the global IP.
Also, the reply from the box 3ffe:8350:1:51:210:7bff:fe30:591 is not
from its linklocal but form its global IP.

Apart from that, the global schematic I wrote is correct. Thanks Kre.

groet,
Pim
