% You only need to send ICMP mit *source* address in the IXP mesh and

This snippet may be useful. Some of us -REALLY- tried to
not have non-aggregatable "holes" in the IPv6 space by
making use of IPv6 features. Unfortunately, others were unwilling
to make the changes in mindset. Link-local use at/over
exchanges would have been so much nicer. Reduced need for
"special" space and all that. Oh well.
