a network yet. I believe this attack will work on most networks out there, simply because IPv6 is enabled on hosts and rogue RA filtering hasn't been implemented on most switches yet.
Any responsible ISP will block this kind of L2 "unknown" traffic between customers.

Nothing new here, but the wider it's known the better. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
