I'm not sure what you mean by "route it beyond the same physical link network". How does that differ from "route it at all"? It was my understanding that link-local addresses are only forwarded by layer-2 switches (which, of course, aren't even aware of the address), and not by any layer-3 devices at all. Is that incorrect? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The IPv6 Users Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe users" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
