You need to ping6 the HIT, not the IPv6 address. Remember that you need to
tell the hip daemon beforehand the mapping between the HIT and IPv6
address using "hipconf add map HIT IP". The IP can be either IPv4 or IPv6
address, as we support now even IPv4.
P.S. We are in process of implementing "ping6 IP" for opportunistic HIP,
but it is going to take a while before it is finished.
