I see! So a node gets a multicast address for Node Information Queries. This is obviously the case when a hostname is given in the rc.conf. I would like to recalculate the lower address part. Which part of a hostname like "test1.test.de" do I have to use to calculate the MD5 hash? Do we have more from the RFC experimental stuff for IPv6 implemented in FreeBSD? Rainer.
