If a router throws away a packet due to congestion, there's a good chance that a retransmission will go through. In this case you can retransmit as many no-UDP-checksum packets you want, none of them will get through. The host really ought to be told that it is wasting its time. /Benny -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
