    inet6: prevent network storms caused by linux IPv6 routers · 72b43d08
    Alexey Kuznetsov authored Jan 12, 2011
    
    
    Linux IPv6 forwards unicast packets, which are link layer multicasts...
    The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not.
    
    The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network.
    This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses.
