Description

It appears just having an IPv6 gateway configured that's unreachable will result in panics several times a day, even when that gateway is not in the routing table at all. Apparently just having apinger pinging an offline gateway will trigger a panic. Needs more investigation, but Seth has confirmed stability issues resolved after removing such an IPv6 gateway.
