You can send IPv6 packets past it on a network, and it will happily ignore them. Does it include an IPv6 implementation? No. At present, there are at least three different IPv6 implementations, and at least one IPv6 stack that also includes IPSEC for v4. Because the situation is in so much flux at the moment, and I'm not at all happy with the stability or the substance of the code that /I've/ looked at, I do not plan on including IPv6 in the near future. Sometime later on this year, I will be re-evaluating the situation, and hopefully will have more to say on the subject at that time. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
