Hi Daniel, thank you for your reply. I've read the RFC now and you're right. I opened a bug report with quagga regarding this issue: https://bugzilla.quagga.net/show_bug.cgi?id=602 OSPFv3 on quagga seems to be a bit buggy in general, I'm still waiting for a fix of another problem (bug #600).
Thanks again and have a good night, Volker On 06/16/10 08:49, Daniel Roesen wrote: > On Wed, Jun 16, 2010 at 03:39:47AM +0200, Volker D.
