At my home I have 4 IPv6 prefixes (2 from xs4all, HE, and 6to4). The best way to retain some sort of sanity is to make sure that all but one are deprecated.
Alternatively, make sure that all just work and that it doesn't matter which one is used. The main problem there is reverse DNS.
my home is also IPv6 multi-homed. I expect the RIPE probe to probe using both source addresses. my routing infrastructure does SADR, so the probe by choosing source address also chooses exit.
At the moment, probes do not explicitly select sources addresses. What gets used in a measurement is whatever the Linux kernel on the probe considers the best address for a particular destination. That may change in the future because source address selection may be needed for Atlas anchors, but at the moment the time frame is unknown. Philip
