Hello:

I have few questions related to IPv6 specs.  Can anyone please help me to
clarify them?

1. If a IPv6 node A send an Echo Request with destination option or
hop-by-hop option to IPv6 node B, should the node B respond an Echo Reply
with the options OR without the options?
2. If a IPv6 node A send a Packet with multiple same routing headers to
IPv6 node C through IPv6 node B, should the node B only process the first
routing header (update the dst address, routing segments left and address)
before it propagate the packet to IPV6 node C, OR should the node B process
all the routing headers?  If the node only process one of the routing
header, would it cause interoperability problem ?
3.  If a IPv6 node A send an Echo Request with unrecognized options( and
their highest-order two bits set to 00)  to IPv6 node B, should the node B
respond an Echo Reply without the unrecognized options from the Echo
Request, OR should the node B respond an Echo Reply with the unrecognized
options? Or are both ways acceptable?
4. If the neighbor solicitation message has the global address as its source
address, does it consider to be an valid message ?
5. If a NPv6 node A send an Router solicitation message to IPv6 node B,
should the node B respond an Router advertisement with invoking router
solicitation message's source address as it's destination address, OR the
node B allow to send Router advertisement with multicast destination
address.


Thank you

Ellen
