Subject: Clarification on ICMPv6

From: George Tsirtsis <[email-masked]>

All,

Reading through RFC2463 I have the following question.

When a node receives an ICMPv6 message with unknown TYPE (from Information
range), the node must silently discard the message. What is not clear is
what happens if the TYPE is known but the CODE is not. Should this message
also be silently discarded?

Thanks for any help

Regards
George
