Not surprisingly, it gets no answers.
More precisely, it seems that these neighbor solicitation messages come from the far end router, like it somehow believes that your internal host is on its same subnet, and is trying to resolve its ipv6 address to its link layer address (similar to what ARP does in ipv4). Is fe80::214:f600:b67e:b4db the address of your provider's router? There could be a misconfiguration somewhere. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
