The question is whether to treat those probes as IPv6 capable > or not. BTW: Are there any probes with site-local IPv6 addresses (fec0::/10). Yes I know site local is deprecated for many years (RFC3879 is from 2004) but some people still haven't noticed[1]. I also found some while checking the Alexa list for odd AAAA records[2]. Jens [1] Last year I bought this book http://www.ciscopress.com/store/cisco-asa-all-in-one-next-generation-firewall-ips-and-9781587143076 and most of the IPv6 chapter explains site-local addressing. The book was published in 2014.
