IPv6 martian filter-set

Hello, I'm not sure if people are using the fltr-martian-v6 filter set maintained by Job Snijders: filter-set: fltr-martian-v6 descr: Current IPv6 martians mp-filter: { 0000::/8^+, # loopback, unspecified, v4-mapped 0200::/7^+, # Reserved by IETF [RFC4048] 2001::/32^-, # Teredo prefix [RFC4380] 2001:db8::/32^+, # NON-ROUTABLE range to be used for documentation purpose [RFC3849] 2002::/16^-, # 6to4 prefix [RFC3068] 3ffe::/16^+, # used for the 6bone but was returned [RFC5156] 5f00::/8^+, # used for the 6bone but was returned [RFC5156] fc00::/7^+, # Unique Local Unicast [RFC4193] fe80::/10^+, # Link Local Unicast [RFC4291] fec0::/10^+, # Reserved by IETF [RFC3879] ff00::/8^+ # Multicast [RFC4291] } I'm trying to figure out why prefixes like 0200::/7 or 0400::/6 are not included in this list Any ideas? cheers, Yannis

Dear IPv6 Enthusiasts, RIPE71 is just 4 months away and it's time to start thinking about IPv6 WG session agenda! If you would like to present, or just have any suggestions on what we should discuss) - please email ipv6-wg-chairs(a)ripe.net. If you would like to present, we need the following information: - a tentative title of your talk; - short summary - how much time you need (I'd recommend allowing 5 mins for questions). Thank you! -- SY, Jen Linkova aka Furry on behalf of IPv6 WG chairs.

Fwd: Operational Implications of IPv6 Packets with Extension (Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-00.txt)
by Fernando Gont 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

FYI To the extent that it's possible, please discuss the I-D on the IETF v6ops mailing-list. But feel free to discuss it here anyway (I'll monitor the list for comments). Thanks! Best regards, Fernando -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Operational Implications of IPv6 Packets with Extension (Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-00.txt) Date: Wed, 01 Jul 2015 17:35:11 -0300 From: Fernando Gont <fgont(a)si6networks.com> To: v6ops(a)ops.ietf.org <v6ops(a)ietf.org> CC: draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops(a)tools.ietf.org Folks, A group of us published a new I-D trying to summarize the operational and security implications. It is meant to summarize the reasons for which operators may intentionally drop IPv6 packets containing IPv6 extension headers. The I-D is available at: <https://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops…> As far as this I-D is concerned, think of us co-authors as the messengers. The I-D doesn't argue itself whether you should (or should not) drop packets with EHs, but simply discusses the challenge they represent in some scenarios. Comments will be more than welcome. Thanks! Best regards, Fernando -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: New Version Notification for draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-00.txt Date: Wed, 01 Jul 2015 13:29:21 -0700 From: internet-drafts(a)ietf.org To: Gert Doering <gert(a)space.net>, Nick Hilliard <nick(a)inex.ie>, Shucheng LIU (Will) <liushucheng(a)huawei.com>, Gert Doering <gert(a)space.net>, Warren Kumari <warren(a)kumari.net>, Will Liu (Shucheng) <liushucheng(a)huawei.com>, Fernando Gont <fgont(a)si6networks.com>, Nick Hilliard <nick(a)inex.ie>, Fernando Gont <fgont(a)si6networks.com>, Warren Kumari <warren(a)kumari.net> A new version of I-D, draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Fernando Gont and posted to the IETF repository.
