I agree with you Jeroen, I misunderstood the following phrase: > And that is only queries, you don't want to know how many RFC1918 > sourced addresses they are dropping, can't send an icmp back now can you :) I was thinking that you were talking about packets with "src=global dest=private", and I just wanted to note that ICMP error packets are sent with "src=<output_iface>, dest=global". I see private addressing is a really bad idea, and I quite agree with http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-deprecate-site-local-01.txt See you and thanks again ! -- JFRH -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
