Just make sure that nothing breaks PTB as it happens if you don=E2=80=99t p=
ay attention to ECMP.

RFC7690

1&1 in Germany has this issue since at least 18-24 months ago, so all their=
 customers with IPv6 enabled are *broken* for anyone having a smaller MTU b=
ecause tunnels or the ISP technology, etc. They are aware of that, I told t=
hem for many months, but is not yet fixed, so make sure you don=E2=80=99t u=
se those data centers if you want to enable IPv6.

You can check this with any of their IPv6 enabled sites (thousands I guess)=
, for example http://diskmakerx.com/

And a nice tool to check it:

    That's a good guess, but I would also guess that path MTU discovery
    may be breaking.  (Or not.)  I think you may want to implement RFC 4890=
,
    with a look at RFC 4443.
