Section 3.7 of draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2553bis-00.txt does not aggre. V4 mapped addresses are clearly intended to allow "basic" v6 apps to interoperate with legacy v4 apps w/o duplicating code. And "basic" in this case most definitly includes multicast. Is KAME planning on fixing this anytime soon? brad To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
