[AusNOG] Request: Contact for DEEWR in regards to IPv6 access to https://ecsn.gov.au/ Website

[Mark Tees]

Hey Reuban,

I can't connect via v4 or v6. Requests to either timeout.

Im coming from iinet/internode.

But I can telnet on both v6/v4 to the addresses resolved from the hostname mentioned.

imac1:~ mark$ telnet 165.12.212.44 443
Trying 165.12.212.44...
Connected to idc4.deewr.gov.au.
Escape character is '^]'.
^]

imac1:~ mark$ telnet 2406:4c00:0:245::212:44 443
Trying 2406:4c00:0:245::212:44...
Connected to 2406:4c00:0:245::212:44.
Escape character is '^]'.
^]
