Hi,
I reasonably think that IPv6 routing through chzrh01 is somehow broken.
Withouth changing anything on my side (I was not onlineâ¦), IPv6 connectivity to known IPv6 hosts (ipv6.google.com and www.kame.net) dropped on Sunday 14. December around 13:45 (see [0]).

No possible route through PoP chzrh01 
2001:41e0:ff60::/48 ::  U    256 0     0 eth0 
That are a large amount of hosts (2^(128-48=80)) you got on that single Ethernet link there (which only has 2^48 possibilities for MAC addresses mind you...)
That should be a /64. The /48 you should route to lo.
For the rest, nobody can't guarantee that a remote destination is actually reachable...
The PoP can be reached it seems, and that is all we can fix.
