Hi David, Currently I was busy with my study at my school so I did not follow up with the conversation. I attached my proposal for the project of adding IPv6 OS detection feature. Please take a look and give me some comments. Thanks! Best regards, Linh

I just found the information about the GSoC 2011, and I am interested in adding IPv6 features into Nmap especially the first 4 features which require research in the field. Last semester I have worked on some security aspects of IPv6 Network Discovery Protocol and really want continue to my research on IPv6.Hi! Thanks for your interest. If you haven't seen them yet, please check out these pages: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/home/google/gsoc2011/nmap http://nmap.org/soc/ http://nmap.org/soc/GeneralRequirements.html http://nmap.org/soc/apply.htmlFor the OS detection feature I found a technical report of Frederic Beck, Olivier Festor and Isabelle Chrisment and a thesis of Eleftherios Nerakis about OS fingerprinting based on IPv6 Network Discovery Protocol. These papers are published quite long ago (2006-2007), so I wonder if anyone has researched on and implemented those techniques in Nmap?These techniques are not implemented in Nmap, however we are aware of the paper. You can see some initial ideas and code regarding IPv6 by running this command: svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap-exp/david/ipv6 See the file notes.txt in the ipv6 directory. If you like, please comment on the implementation of raw sending in ipv6.c.Furthermore, do I have to put exactly how I am going to do to add the IPv6 features into Nmap? Because some features require research, so at this time I may have not the clear idea of the solution.We understand that these tasks require much research. You should include a timeline that shows how much time you expect to devote to research versus implementation. David Fifield
