The stack should send out a neighbor solicitation for a global source
address of a received Echo request when there are no default routers present
on the link.I believe such addresses should be considered on link wrt RFC
2461 Section 5.2.

Currently ip6_output will drop such a packet since there won't be a prefix
route in
the routing table.Is this correct behavior?


Thx.
