By the way, to add some IPv6 technical noise: Have you ever tried to set up MD5 auth. in a BGP over IPv6 session between an Alcatel 7750SR and a Cisco 6500... I keep getting a log message (Cisco) exposing some issue with the MD5 digest from the Alcatel. The funny thing is that Cisco <---> Cisco goes Fine, and Alcatel <---> Alcatel goes fine (as obviously expected)... so may be you know something about any difference in the implementation. Even more "funny" is the fact that BGP MD5 auth. Cisco <---> Alcatel goes perfect over IPv4.
I'm also looking at some kind of issue like changes in TCP sequence numbers after MD5 hash or such things, but I found nothing yet... I've talk to Alcatel, but no answer yet... Thx, Nic.
