@ Will someone please tell me what IPv8 is ?
@
@ I do know that there is an IPv6...
@
@ btw, I'd do the above as
@
@ if (ip->ip_v == IPVERSION6) {
@ if (ip->ip_v == IPVERSION) {
@ ...
@
There is an IPv8 header file referenced at...
http://comm.unety.net/US/IL/Naperville/Unir
There are macros to test the version and options bits...
You have to use "&" and not "==" to make sure you
are testing just one bit at a time. Only the high bit
of the IPv4 version field (ip->ip_v) is used for version.
