Random-IP probe (yarrp) into the AS' prefixes
At least one router inside AS5603's announced prefix replied during the random-target probe. Hop(s): 2a00:ee1:800:9::1. These are candidate targets for direct testing.
ICMPv6 Type 2 (Packet Too Big) acceptance - active test
Vantage points disagree about Type 2 acceptance - transit ASes on one path may be filtering Type 2 even though the destination's stack accepts it on another path:
- NL host (go6lab): inconclusive: no Echo Reply after PTB (probe 1500B). (ICMPv6 Echo + forged PTB)
- ITA host (Karsolink): inconclusive: no Echo Reply to 1300-byte probe. (ICMPv6 Echo + forged PTB)
- SLO host (6connect): inconclusive: no Echo Reply after PTB (probe 1500B). (ICMPv6 Echo + forged PTB)
Why they disagree - reachability mismatch: One vantage couldn't drive a flow at all to this destination (no Echo Reply or no responding TCP port), so the active test had no behavioural change to observe. The other vantage's verdict is the only meaningful one here.
Failure detail — what to grep in your logs
| vantage | our source | your target | method | result | tested (UTC) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| go6lab | 2a00:8642:42::75 | 2a00:ee0:d::13 | icmp6-echo | inconclusive | 2026-05-30T10:33:12Z |
| karsolink | 2a12:d8c0:105a:9001::a154 | 2a00:ee0:d::13 | icmp6-echo | no_echo | 2026-05-30T10:39:07Z |
| odin | 2607:fae0:a000::42 | 2a00:ee0:d::13 | icmp6-echo | inconclusive | 2026-05-30T10:33:04Z |
Attempt log (go6lab):
icmp6-echo→ inconclusive (size_before=1460, size_after=None): no Echo Reply after PTB (probe 1500B)dns-tcp→ no_tcp: connect failed: timed outtls→ no_tcp: TLS connect failedhttp→ no_tcp: tcp/80 not open
Attempt log (karsolink):
icmp6-echo→ no_echo: no Echo Reply to 1300-byte probedns-tcp→ no_tcp: connect failed: timed outtls→ no_tcp: TLS connect failedhttp→ no_tcp: tcp/80 not open
Attempt log (odin):
icmp6-echo→ inconclusive (size_before=1460, size_after=None): no Echo Reply after PTB (probe 1500B)dns-tcp→ no_tcp: connect failed: timed outtls→ no_tcp: TLS connect failedhttp→ no_tcp: tcp/80 not open
To match the corresponding ICMPv6 packet on your side (host firewall, AS edge, or transit tap), look for our PTBs around the timestamps above:
sudo tcpdump -i any -n -e 'icmp6 and ip6[40] = 2 and (src host 2607:fae0:a000::42 or src host 2a00:8642:42::75 or src host 2a12:d8c0:105a:9001::a154)'
If you see our PTBs arriving but the destination's TCP/Echo flow does not shrink, the drop is in the destination kernel (cause 3 below). If you don't see them at all, drop is upstream of you (cause 2). If you only see them from one of our two source IPs, the drop is path-asymmetric — one transit on the asymmetric route is filtering, the other is not.
Where the path divergence is
Per-vantage probe + verdict (headline):
- go6lab: probe
icmp6-echo→ verdictinconclusive - karsolink: probe
icmp6-echo→ verdictno_echo - odin: probe
icmp6-echo→ verdictinconclusive
Full per-method matrix (all four methods run at each vantage):
| vantage | icmp6-echo | dns-tcp | tls | http |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| go6lab | inconclusive | no_tcp | no_tcp | no_tcp |
| karsolink | no_echo | no_tcp | no_tcp | no_tcp |
| odin | inconclusive | no_tcp | no_tcp | no_tcp |
These vantage-level disagreements are rooted somewhere in the forward paths. Joining each per-vantage traceroute against the IP→AS lookup from our global yarrp mesh, the first hop where the paths land in different ASes is the most likely site of the offending filter / unreachable AS / Type 2 drop.
Suspect transit ASes (ranked by how often they appear at the divergence point on the path of the worse-classifying vantage): AS5603, AS5405.
- From go6lab (open/Type-2=inconclusive) the path enters AS5405 at hop 7; from karsolink (open/Type-2=no_echo) the same hop is in AS5603. Last common AS: AS5603. The disagreement is most likely rooted in one of those two transit ASes.
- From go6lab (open/Type-2=inconclusive) the path enters AS5405 at hop 4; from odin (open/Type-2=inconclusive) the same hop is in AS5603. Last common AS: AS5603. The disagreement is most likely rooted in one of those two transit ASes.
- From karsolink (open/Type-2=no_echo) the path enters AS5603 at hop 7; from odin (open/Type-2=inconclusive) the same hop is in an opaque hop. Last common AS: AS5603. The disagreement is most likely rooted in one of those two transit ASes.
Diagnosis is path-level, not packet-level: it tells you which transit AS is the prime suspect, not exactly which firewall rule is to blame. Use the tracepath6 output below (when available) for per-hop PMTU evidence on the same path.
✨ Diagnostic interpretation
Per-hop PTB acceptance walk
From the local vantage, we walk the forward path hop-by-hop, sending each hop a 1500-byte ICMPv6 Echo, then a forged PTB (MTU=1280) sourced from us, then another 1500-byte Echo. If the second reply arrives fragmented or smaller, that hop honoured the PTB. If unchanged, it didn't. The first ✗ in an otherwise-✓ path is the most likely filter location. Cross-country aggregation: see the global PTB filter atlas for transit ASes ranked by filter rate across all measurements.
First break at hop 3: AS5603 (SIOL-NET - Telekom Slovenije, d.d., SI) -- this is the most likely site of the offending PTB filter. Hop IP: 2a00:ee1:800:9::1.
| # | hop IP | AS | Holder | PTB acceptance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2607:fae0:a000::2 | AS8038 | 6CONNECT - 6connect, Inc., US | - skipped (CoPP) |
| 2 | * | - | - (no IP) | |
| 3 | 2a00:ee1:800:9::1 | AS5603 | SIOL-NET - Telekom Slovenije, d.d., SI | ✗ not_honored |
| 4 | 2a00:ee0:d::13 | AS5603 | SIOL-NET - Telekom Slovenije, d.d., SI | ? no_response |
Tests host-mode PTB acceptance (PTBs aimed at the hop itself). A router that honours PTBs to itself can still be filtering PTBs transiting through it; this is one indicator, not proof of full PTB transparency. Hops in CoPP-rate-limit ranges are skipped to avoid false signals.
