Hi all,
Recently we had announced an IPv6 forwarding stack for Linux 2.6 It is
available for 2.4 too. Who could review it and commit it into Usagi's
repository ?
This code provides the Kernel part of IPv6 multicast support for Linux.
It has been developped with the LSIIT
(http://clarinet.u-strasbg.fr/~hoerdt/). 6WIND has been focused on
developping the Linux 2.4 support and the LSIIT has been focused on the
Linux 2.6 support. We have derived this implementation from the BSD one.
It means that it uses the same API, the same system calls and the same
structures. So you can reuse any BSD/Kame multicast daemons and tools like:
* mfc (for IPv6 static multicast routes)
* pim6sd
* xorp
You can get this source code into the download section of:

Regards,
Vincent
