[dns-operations] AAAA record for c.root-servers.net

[Daniel Kalchev]

This is apparently an bug in the RIPE Atlas probe management software — it needs to make sure the probe can generally reach it’s own measurement targets, before assigning it to do any public IPv6 measurements.

There are plenty of probes connected to misconfigured IPv6 networks all over the world, not just in Kyrgyzstan.

What we are seeing here is a failure upon failure, and the Internet still works, for most :)
