Sorry, cut-n-paste error.

Router: Germany
Command: ping ipv6 www.python.org

This data is to be considered confidentional.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2001:888:2000:D::A2, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 8/9/12 ms

Note that a lot of data centers, ISPs and end-user routers are not
prepared to handle IPv6.
