<DIV>Hi Mr. Haoda,</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV>If i send relay reply message to a multicast address, he is comparing it with an unicast address...</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV>HDR_IPV6_relay_reply_nut_relay.DestinationAddress received:ff02::1:2 = fe80::200:ff:fe00:a4a4</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV>But if i send the relay reply to the unicast address fe80::200:ff:fe00:a4a4, the packet is not being received. The IP address is not reflected i feel so because Neighbour Solicitation is being sent to this address and it does not recieve any NA back(This happens only when the interface does not have such an&nbsp;IP address).</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV>Please comment on this...</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV>Regards,</DIV>  <DIV>Amit</DIV>  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>  <DIV><BR><BR><B><I>haoda &lt;haoda@64translator.com&gt;</I></B> wrote:</DIV>  <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Hi Mr. Amit,<BR><BR>I think the content of the
