Hello Marco,
The host with the issue has static IPv4 + IPv6.
/etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.20.1.8
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 172.20.1.0
broadcast 172.20.1.255
gateway 172.20.1.2
# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
dns-nameservers 172.20.1.2
dns-search home.elysium-os.nl
iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:610:779::8
netmask 64
gateway 2001:610:779::2
An other host provides the IPv6 connectivity with the internet using SixXS. (

Kind regards,
Marcel
