The padding destination or hop-by-hop option is called Pad1 and not Pad0. See RFC2460 (4.2) or the IANA ipv6-parameters registry: http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-parameters/ipv6-parameters.xml Signed-off-by: Eldad Zack <redacted>If standards bodies want to call a 0 a 1, then I guess we have to follow :-)
Yeah, Pad0 is a much better name for it. That's probably why it never occured to any one for so long :-)
