You are preaching to the choir Jens. Once upon a time someone told security a fable about all ICMP being the tool of evil hackers. They believed it. IPv6 won't affect this network unless IPv4 is deleted by M$ from all versions of the Windows stack.
Microsoft is heavily using IPv6. I usually don't work with Microsoft products but I was told that current Microsoft products will only talk IPv6 to each other and if they don't have IPv6 they'll tunnel over IPv4. It's time for a lot of people to a) IPv6 and b) TCP basics. And b) includes not block each and *every* ICMP packets. No matter if it is IPv4 or IPv6. cheers Jens -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Foelderichstr. 40 | 13595 Berlin, Germany | +49-151-18721264 | | http://www.quux.de | http://blog.quux.de | jabber: jenslink () guug de | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
