Hi, Is anybody working on extending the raw packet support for IPv6 ? Its in the todo list.If anybody is working on it,I would like to join in.
Yes, work is in progress in the branch /nmap-exp/david/nmap-ipv6 I haven't worked on this for a while, but there are good primitives for raw packet sending and receiving. Also IPv6 traceroute works (but so far only interprets responses from the target itself, not TTL exceeded responses). ./nmap -6 -n -Pn -sn --traceroute ipv6.google.com I should say that it works "up to interface difficulties." I got stalled on this work because I had trouble in matching up interfaces to destinations. I think that libdnet doesn't provide enough information. You can see how the IPv6 interfaces are matched up with --iflist. If you are interested I can think back to recall what the problem was exactly and what should be done to fix it.
