The packet will hit a router which will refuse to forward it. This is exactly the same as a node sending a packet with inadequate hop count to reach the destination. In both cases the sending node gets back an ICMP error message (scope exceeded or hop count exceeded). There is nothing strange here. --Brian -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
