RFC 1122 says that unicast packets encapsulated in broadcast
link-layer packets should be dropped. Implement that, but also
extend it to link-layer multicast packets.
I cannot find anything equivalent in the IPv6 RFCs - anyone more
familiar with that who could help check for that?

And if it's *not* in the IPv6 RFCs, how should we implement this?
I haven't found anything, too. Should I bring this up with IETF?

Bye,
Hannes
