Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org> added the comment: According to http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/groupmac/tutorial.html , the assertions in check_node are weeding out perfectly valid addresses:
>>> node = 0x525400123456 >>> universal_local_bit = (node >> 40L) & 2 >>> universal_local_bit 2L This just means that the address is locally administered, but valid. Similarly, shouldn't an individual_group_bit of 1 should just mean multicast mode?
