Hi,

    I could not find a way to do ipv6 packet forwarding with ip6fw or 
ipfw. I am looking to use a rule like this:

add fwd ::1,8080 tcp from any to any

    either using ip6fw or ipfw. I understand that packet diversion is 
not supported in ipfw or ip6fw but I would assume this is for DIVERT 
sockets. Although in ip_fw2.c the case O_FORWARD_IP exist, no such thing 
seems to have been implemented in ip6_fw.c. So I was wondering if anyone 
has done some previous work in that direction? And If I could get some 
hints as where to start my own implementation if nobody has started already.

Regards,
