Hi All,
I am running a IPv6 UDP server, which is bound to in6addr_any. When I send a packet from a client to the link-local address of any interface on the linux box, the server accepts the packets. But when I send the packets to the global address the server doesnt pick the packets.
On snooping I can see that the packets are reaching the interface.
I have tried with following global address 3ffe:x:x::x and 2001:db8:x:x:: addresses assigned to interface.
I checked the statistics and the Recv-Q seems to increment.
[root@pc4 root]# netstat -a -udp
Active Internet connections (servers and established)

Please help.
