Hello, from man pim6sd: "pim6sd requires the node running the daemon to have an IPv6 global address.". Does that mean that it must have an IPv6 address which it address has a global type? Namely, must it be an address which starts with a global prefix, like 2001::....? Or, if I will set a multicast address thus: ff::43/64 ; it's scope is Global; is it regarded an IPv6 global address? Second: is there a way to prevent the pim6sd daemon to send the PIM hello messages, which it does regularly ? Any help will be appreciated. Regards, Ian
