I have not used vls, so I defer to anyone that can offer better suggestions. I don't see anything in the on-line documentations about known IPv6 multicast problems or how to interpret the Net6Output error message. Have you tried to IPv4 multicast? From the vls documentation is configured: BEGIN "multicast1" # multicast streaming Type = "multicast" DstHost = "239.2.12.42" DstPort = "1234" TTL = "64" END I am assuming the Linux PC Access Point is a bridge mode, not routing, so a IPv4 mrouted (DVMRP) or pimd (PIM) is not needed; though FreeBSD will only send the multicast packets out one of the interfaces without a IPv6 multicast router. The other suggestion is to turn on the verbose debugging, it may shed light on the multicast problem. --Mark Tinguely
