Hello, folks, Is there a recommended value for the Hop Limit of IPv6 packets?
The IANA ipv6-parameters file states that the Hop Limit is not a parameter (?). FWIW, the recommended value for the IPv4 TTL is 64, and it seems that some v6 implementations follow the same advice for the IPv6 Hop Limit. e.g., at least in some Junipers it defaults to 64. (http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/erx/junose700/swcmdref-a-m/html/i-commands285.html) Thanks!
