            Bug ID: 231144
           Summary: fragmented IPv6 drops
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: admin@canmos.net

Hello!

I have a problem with handling fragmented IPv6 packets.

Exactly:
- My system is FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p2 with GENERIC kernel
- I have configured IPv6-only authoritative DNS server
And when the oid net.inet6.ip6.forwarding is set to 1, the system stops to
receive fragmented IPv6 packets. If i set net.inet6.ip6.forwarding to 0, the
behavior is returning to normal. As i know IPv6 packets MUST NO be fragment=
ed
by transit gateways itself. But there is no anything said about incoming
packets that are ALREADY fragmented. So could you please help me to solve t=
his
issue?
For comparesion i tried to reproduce the problem under FreeBSD-10.3. There =
is
no any issues with fragmented IPv6, all the packets were handled by system =
as
well, regardless of meaning net.inet6.ip6.forwarding sysctl.

Thank you in advance!
