I can't comment on the validaty of the tests performed, but I'd like to point out one thing: I like that the NLNOG RING is very diverse, especially in terms of the node's IPv6 connectivity. Some hosts are behind exotic 6to4 NATted tunnels, others behind regular tunnels, some inadvertently block useful ICMPv6 messages, some networks are just broken. For NLNOG RING applications we mandate that there is 1 globally unique IPv6 address on the host, we do not specify how this should be accomplished. This leads to some variety, not all of those implementations I would describe as "well behaved". Kind regards, Job
