Hello, I have a question regarding disabling sending redirects in IPV6 in the linux kernel: In include/linux/ipv6.h, I see a member called accept_redirects in ipv6_devconf, but there is no send_redirects member. There is /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/accept_redirects but I could not find /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/send_redirects. (In IPV4 there is both /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/send_redirects and /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/accept_redirects). Is there some reason that there is no way (as far as I understand) to disable sending redirects in IPV6 ? Why there is a way to do it in IPV4 and there is no way to do it in IPV6? Regards, Ian
