I really appreciate your help.
We are making a router which has our customized kernel which is derived
from KAME. Our behavior on RH0 is dropping the packet and sending back
ICMP. The failed tests are "IPv6 Specification: 56, 59, 60, 63, 64, 65."
Are TAHI folks on this mailing list? Or is there a separate list? I want
to ask them about the "100% pass policy" on this RFC 5095 case. Any
other guys out there having my problems?
Thanks,
