Date: Fri, 3 Aug 2012 07:35:06 +0000 From: BALAKUMARAN KANNAN <balakumarank@...aelxsi.co.in> To: "netdev@...r.kernel.org" <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Subject: RFC3484: default address selection malfunctioning Hi all, In Default address selction, From DNS query, the destination addresses are both a site local and a link scope addresses. the source addresses a site local address and a global address. So while pinging to the host(with name) according to RFC3484, the kernel should select the link local destination address and link local source address right? But linux kernel-3.0.26 is using the global address as source address and site local as destination address. Why? is it a bug? And the DNS server address is a site local address. Had a default router with link local address Thank you. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
