Hi,
I have encountered IPv6 multicast problem.
I cannot send UDP packet longer than Shortest MTU.
It seems the bug of IPv6 multicast kernel.
I used the same application from FreeBSD 4.11. On that old version,
any problems happens. When I would like to change the platform of
this application from 4.11 to 7.2 or later, I encountered this
problem.
Does anyone have any information about this problem?
The followings are OS information I have tested, the result of
Tshark command, and source code of test program.
Best regards,
Hideki Yamamoto
