Hi, Yukiyo Akisada:<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; when I change localhost6.localdomain6 to localhost7.localdomain7 in
/etc/hosts on TN, and test again:<br>
&nbsp;I read the tcpdump like following:<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>
<pre wrap="">03:45:58.605302 IP6 fe80::200:ff:fe00:100 &gt; localhost7.localdomain7:
ICMP6, echo request, seq 0, length 14
03:45:58.605349 IP6 localhost7.localdomain7 &gt; fe80::200:ff:fe00:100:
ICMP6, echo reply, seq 0, length 14
so I think NUT didnot echo reply the localhost, echo reply is from TN.
Thanks

Hi, Yukiyo Akisada:<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I donot think NUT sends Echo Reply from ::1<br>
because when I remark the ::1line in /etc/hosts file in TN, and test
again, localhost6.localdomain6 change ::1,<br>
and ::1 send echo request and echo reply to TN, NUT didnot do
anything.&nbsp; like this:<br>
  <br>
  <pre wrap="">03:45:58.605302 IP6 fe80::200:ff:fe00:100 &gt; ::1 :
ICMP6, echo request, seq 0, length 14
03:45:58.605349 IP6 ::1 &gt; fe80::200:ff:fe00:100:
ICMP6, echo reply, seq 0, length 14</pre>
so in my opinion, NUT didnot do anything<br>
  <br>
  <br>
  <br>
  <br>
  <br>

    <pre wrap="">Hi, Wang Jiabo.
TN has the correct behavior.
TN exactly sends Echo Request to ::1 according to your tcpdump,
and NUT sends Echo Reply from ::1.
In this case,
NUT must ignore this Echo Request and must not transmit Echo Reply.
So, NUT is wrong.
Thanks,

    I think my confiugre file on tn has some problem, because
3:45:58.605302 IP6 fe80::200:ff:fe00:100 &gt; localhost6.localdomain6:
ICMP6, echo request, seq 0, length 14

is my tn computer(freebsd 7.0).
    so could you tell me I should care what, when I configure tn
Thanks

        <pre wrap="">Hi, Wang Jiabo.
Please refer RFC 4291 (IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture).
That says,
    472 2.5.3.  The Loopback Address
    473
    474    The unicast address 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 is called the loopback address.
    475    It may be used by a node to send an IPv6 packet to itself.  It must
    476    not be assigned to any physical interface.  It is treated as having
    477    Link-Local scope, and may be thought of as the Link-Local unicast
    478    address of a virtual interface (typically called the "loopback
    479    interface") to an imaginary link that goes nowhere.
    480
    481    The loopback address must not be used as the source address in IPv6
    482    packets that are sent outside of a single node.  An IPv6 packet with
    483    a destination address of loopback must never be sent outside of a
    484    single node and must never be forwarded by an IPv6 router.  A packet
    485    received on an interface with a destination address of loopback must
    486    be dropped.
So you must ignore the packet regarding to line 484-486.
Thanks,

          <pre wrap="">I donot think my test is wrong
when I test in icmpv6(RFC4443), I get failure in " Request send to
loopback address" section.
but I check the tcpdump message, I don't think my test is wrong. so who
can help me to get correct answer for the question:my link-local sent echo request to localhost,
and get echo reply. but TAHI need that echo request donot need get echo reply. please tell me why?
