Steps for conformance test are described below -: Configuration -: TESTER_A++++++++++IUT+++++++++TESTER_B 1> tester A and B is sending neighbor solicitation to IUT 2> IUT responds with neighbor advertisements. 3> tester B transit a echo request to tester A via IUT.. 4> Echo request is having routing extension header. 5> IUT is generating ICMP error due to the presence of routing extension he= ader. While looking into the file (netinet6/route6.c),we can see that the code ha= s been commented. Why there is no support for route extension header in freebsd v7.2 ? >From which release we have the code that support route extension header ?
