Oh, and I've found in the past that FreeBSD requires you to add the interface name with a % sign after the v6 address when trying to communicate via link-local: #ping6 fe80::1%lo0 PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::1%lo0 --> fe80::1%lo0 16 bytes from fe80::1%lo0, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=0.224 ms 16 bytes from fe80::1%lo0, icmp_seq=1 hlim=64 time=0.131 ms ^C ...but when communicating to a global unique, you do not: #ping6 2607:f118::b6 PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2607:f118::b6 --> 2607:f118::b6 16 bytes from 2607:f118::b6, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=0.234 ms ^C Steve _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
