Dear Colleagues,

Why could it be that a FreeBSD 12.2 host does not reply to ICMPv6
Neighbor Solicitations from the router?

Interface configuration on host:

$ ifconfig re1
re1: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        options=3D8209b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,W=
OL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
        ether c4:12:f5:33:c9:7c
        inet 192.168.170.5/24 broadcast 192.168.170.255
        inet6 fe80::c612:f5ff:fe33:c97c%re1/64 scopeid 0x2
        inet6 2001:470:ecba:3::5/64
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
        status: active
        nd6 options=3D21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
$=20

Interface configuration on router:

[admin@MikroTik] > /ipv6 address print where interface=3Dbridge
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic, G - global, L - link-local=
=20
 #    ADDRESS                                     FROM-POOL INTERFACE=20
 0 DL fe80::4a8f:5aff:feab:b0c1/64                          bridge
 1  G 2001:470:ecba:3::1/64                                 bridge
[admin@MikroTik] >=20


Packet dump: http://admin.sibptus.ru/~vas/nd1.pcapng
where I ping a host in the IPv6 Internet from 2001:470:ecba:3::5, the
router wants to learn the L2 address for 2001:470:ecba:3::5 to reply
to, and receives no answer.

Where could be the problem?
