Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2014 11:50:35 -0700 From: Sharat Masetty <sharat04@...il.com> To: Emmanuel Thierry <ml@...il.fr>, Sharat Masetty <sharat04@...il.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: IPV6 routing problem Thank you Emmanuel and Hannes, I went through the thread and the suggested fix and it definitely makes sense. I will apply the fix and test it out. A general question, Can you suggest a good reference documentation to understand the Linux kernel IPV6 routing and neighboring subsystem better? The O Reilly book does not have much about IPV6.
