Hi there: I downloaded the latest ethereal from the site and start using it to check some captured TCP packets over IPv6. I noticed that it suggest that the TCP checksum is incocrrect. The packet that I was looking at has Routing Options enabled in the IPV6 header with 8 nodes. So the True Destination in the Pseudo Header Checksum calculation should look at the last nodes DA instead of the DA listed in the IP header. However I think the ethereal is mistakenly calculate the psuedo header checksum by using the DA in the IP header.( I basically said it again, am I?) Anyway, maybe you guys already know this issue or maybe I am missing something. I have attached the corresponding packet file and let me know. Thanks. <<ethereal.enc>>
