Right, but I actually don't understand why we still have to have this kind of conversation. Almost all real-world implementations have some glitch; sometimes the bug is fixed quickly, sometimes it's considered too minor to be prioritized and can stay longer. It happens all the time. I simply don't understand why such a corner case behavior is discussed in the context of whether an RFC is "right". If my previous example of broken router behavior wasn't enough, there's another one for the loved OS: Linux allows you to send a packet with the source address being ::1 outside of the sending node by running this script: import socket s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET6, socket.SOCK_DGRAM) s.bind(('::1', 0)) s.sendto(b'', ('2001:db8::1', 4200)) I hope no one seriously asks whether this text of RFC4291, Section 2.5.3 is "right" because of that bug: The loopback address must not be used as the source address in IPv6 packets that are sent outside of a single node. Then, can we now really stop talking about whether the RFC is right or wrong about the intermediate 54 bits by referring to an implementation that allows a user to violate it? A bug is a bug. If someone wants to legitimize that buggy behavior, make a proposal with a valid justification to update the relevant standard (sometimes it can actually succeed). An attempt to make it valid because of the existence of the buggy behavior itself is just time wasting. -- JINMEI, Tatuya
