Hi:

I've observed that if I make this ping:

root@mira:/usr/home/jrh# ping6 2001:720:410:1001::0

Where my prefix is 2001:720:410:1001::/64, it's answered by my
own host:

PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:720:410:1001:290:27ff:fe86:93d -->
2001:720:410:1001::
16 bytes from 2001:720:410:1001:290:27ff:fe86:93d, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64
time=0.334 ms
16 bytes from 2001:720:410:1001:290:27ff:fe86:93d, icmp_seq=1 hlim=64
time=0.448 ms  

I know that it doesn't exist "IPv6 broadcast", because it
has been superseded by multicast addresses, as it's told by RFC 
2373 [ADDRARCH].

Then I suppose that it could exist a host with Iface ID = 00...0, so how
can I ping to that host ? is it forbidden in any RFC (tell me where pls
:) ?

Thanks!
