It seems mharrima> to me as though this should not be allowed. Protocols and implementations should generally respond using the address to which the request packet was sent. That being said, there are sometimes protocol reasons not to do this and sometimes implementations don't necessarily handle things properly internally. But, I doubt most protocols ever specify the "legality" of what address is used to respond to a request. Thus, what should happen is what you want. In reality, as you noticed, some implementations fail to do this. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
