The idea here is - I have a host in a "home network" that has 2 ISPs, with a global IPv6 address from each of them- one of the ISPs fails, but the host does not know, and keeps using the "broken" IPv6 source address - by cyclic measurements, Brian's tool will see "nah, that address stopped working" and will de-preference it on the host -> host starts using the other IPv6 source address -> connectivity restored (over the other ISP) and the test envisioned would be "ping something willing to be pinged" :-)
Yes that's fine, there could be $reasons to do more measurements! :) Cheers, Robert -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas
