IPv6 tc filters

Hi!

Do IPv6 tc filters work? According to Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic
Control HOWTO, IPv6 does not hook into the Routing Policy Database
(RPDB), thus causing the filters to fail. I would appreciate it if
someone on this list can confirm or refute this claim. If filters have
been fixed, since which kernel/iproute2 version do they work?

Regards,
Dragos

They do work, tc rules apply to any kind of traffic.

Some specific selectors only work with IPv4 so you need to craft
IPv6 variations yourself.
