Mangling the header did not prevent the worms, lack of state did that. A stateful filter that doesn't need to mangle the packet header is frequently called a firewall (yes some firewalls still do, but that is by choice). Tony > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAI

First issue is that IPv6 interfaces support both the old & new prefixes at the same time, so the provider change case is not as dramatic as people fear based on past IPv4 experience. Second: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-v6ops-renumbering-procedure-0 1.txt talks about other issues
