Re: ICMPv6 Redirects

Sorry for the confusion. My problem is I am receiving all packets. PACKET_OTHERHOST does not seem to be dropped. A suggestion from Varka was to disable redirects however it now seems that this is not possible on a ipv6 interface.

I can fix the problem by dropping PACKET_OTHERHOST in mac802154_subif_frame.

Yes. It seems to be part of the ipv6 std that you can't disable redirects.

I don't understand now. Is your issue that you want to disable redirects
but you can't. Or something is not working because PACKET_OTHERHOST has
a wrong handling.

Your first mail shows that you have issues with PACKET_OTHERHOST and
these packets are not dropped.

Now we talk about disabling ICMPv6 redirects. All PACKET_OTHERHOST
sk_buff's should be dropped by IPv6 layer.
