Can you ping6 this address? Are the shown addresses configured in
real or are they rewritten for public ML posting?

They look a little bit strange to me.

Also try
$ telnet <ipv6address>

perhaps this kind will work.

If not, telnet has perhaps no IPv6 support (which version/RPM do you
use)? Check also 
$ which telnet
to be sure you're using the right one.
