Folks, While doing some testing, it seems that FreeBSD ignores ICMPv6 Redirects when both the Redirect Destination and the Redirect Target are the same (i.e., the destination is supposed to be on-link). OTOH, Redirects are processed as expected when the Redirect Target is different from the Redirect Destination. Should I report this as a bug, or is this (non-rfc-compliant) behavior intentional? (If so, what's the rationale?) Thanks! Best regards, -- Fernando Gont e-mail: fernando@gont.com.ar || fgont@acm.org PGP Fingerprint: 7809 84F5 322E 45C7 F1C9 3945 96EE A9EF D076 FFF1
