For example,an interface has two an addresses, automatic-configured 1000::1/65
and manually-configured 2000::1/64,and 1000::2/64 is the on-link neighbour of
the interface.We send a packet, for example and ICMPv6 echo, with a destination
address of 1000::2 from the interface,then the source addre
If we can predict that many new extension headers will be defined in the
future,a new draft for the router to recognize the newly defined extension
header will be neccessary.For example,we can define a set of parameters
including the Next Header value in the immediately preceding header,a list o
I don't think your comment is a problem.Whether a block of memory is payload or
an extension header is determined by the Next Header value of the immediately
preceding header, not whether the extension header is known or unknown.A node
should pass an unknown extension header to the next header i
The Source Address of Router Solicitation Message is specified in section
4.1 as follows:
IP Fields:
Source Address
An IP address assigned to the sending interface, or
the unspecified address if no address is assigned
to the send
For example,the IP address of one end(Router A) of the PPP link is
1000::1/64,the one of the other end(Router B) is 1000::2/64.Suppose packet
with a destination IP address of 1000::3/64 is sent from Router A to Router
B.On Router B,the packet's destination IP address matches 1000::/64,then
the
Hi!
Let's see the following paragraph of section 4 in RFC2460.
" Each extension header is an integer multiple of 8 octets long, in
order to retain 8-octet alignment for subsequent headers. Multi-
octet fields within each extension header are aligned on their
natural boundaries, i.e., fiel
Hi every body,I noticed this issue very long ago, but I always think the
byte order of IPv6 header is big endian.But I'm not so sure for the
payload.If an application or user want to use little endian in the payload
and it has assurance that the recipient knows this,it can use any of
them.Paylo
which feature and performance of IPv6 do you want to test?
IPv6 is a huge conception containing numeral issues.
