<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello All,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have encountered a bug in the latest =
version of the test suite, with test #167 when running in host =
mode.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">RFC 2462 states:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier =
New"> If the sum of the prefix =
length and interface identifier length<BR>
does not equal 128 bits, the Prefix =
Information option MUST be<BR>
ignored. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">This test is advertising a prefix =
length of 96 in the second RA and expecting the NUT to add the prefix to =
its list of on-link prefixes, although 96 plus the length of the =
Ethernet interface ID is longer than 128. From the RFC =
explanation, I believe this test is operating incorrectly.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Also, the test procedure documentation =
does not accurately describe what is actually happening in the =
test. The procedure shows just one RA being sent, but in the test, =
two RAs are sent, each with a different prefix option.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Please advise in this matter.</FONT>
</P>
