Ok filtering ipv6 and ipv6-icmp is understood, it is like ipv4.
But what about the others, should they be blocked, restricted?
Does a ios "deny ipv6 any any" affect them?
DO NOT filter IPv6 ICMP like you filter IPv4. If you do, you will break PMTU-Discovery, Neighbor Discovery, and RA/SLAAC, all of which depend on ICMPv6. Owen
