currently watching a server that doesn't have an ipv6 address anymore but still receive incoming requests on it

another server can send and receive packets for that ipv6 address

networking is weird

@CobaltVelvet I may speculate that some routing protocol cached this server's layer 2 address and keep sending things there for this reason but why does it accept them, ip packets have destination fields so it should reject them?..
