According to our logs your probe lost its IPv6 address around 11:43 UTC and got it again around 14:10 UTC. The most likely cause is that the probe didn't receive and router advertisements during that period. The probe lost its default route around 10:19 UTC. There is however the issue that the Linux kernel on the v1 and v2 probes has a bug that it may get in a mode where it doesn't receive router advertisement multicasts anymore. So if it happens again, it may be worth replacing the probe with a v3 probe. Philip
