[tor-relays] IPv6 Tor authority is down?

Hello,
so to also enable IPv6 on my relay I followed the post-install article
which said that one should ping all IPv6 authorities with the following
command: "ping6 -c2 2001:858:2:2:aabb:0:563b:1526 && ping6 -c2
2620:13:4000:6000::1000:118 && ping6 -c2 2001:67c:289c::9 && ping6 -c2
2001:678:558:1000::244 && ping6 -c2 2607:8500:154::3 && ping6 -c2
2001:638:a000:4140::ffff:189 && echo OK.". This generally works fine
except for 2607:8500:154::3, and further testing with an online tool
confirms that the ping does not succeed. So I now wonder if I can simply
ignore that and enable IPv6, or if this isn't recommended (and probably
also what I could do in this case).
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

That IP address used to belong to Faravahar, which is in the progress
of being relocated and
hasn't found its new home yet
(dirauth: Remove Faravahar from code (#40688) · Issues · The Tor Project / Core / Tor · GitLab). You
can safely ignore this error.
If you want a more up to date list, you can check the IP shown on metrics.tpo:
Relay Search
