I don't believe there is a 'rfc1918' in v6 (yet), I agree that it doesn't seem relevant, damaging perhaps though :)
Yes, there was rfc1918 in IPv6 right from the beginning: Site local addresses "0xF80" dont leave a site. They can be routed within a site but they never get outside. Just like rfc1918 addresses do. Link local addresses that cannot even leave a link. Even more restrictive than rfc1918. Just like old netbios used to be before it was ported to tcp/ip, ipx and decnet. regards Peter and Karin -- Peter and Karin Dambier The Public-Root Consortium Graeffstrasse 14 D-64646 Heppenheim +49(6252)671-788 (Telekom) +49(179)108-3978 (O2 Genion) +49(6252)750-308 (VoIP: sipgate.de) mail: peter@peter-dambier.de mail: peter@echnaton.serveftp.com http://iason.site.voila.fr http://www.kokoom.com/iason
