From: Rafał Miłecki Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 23:14:45 +0000 (+0100) Subject: Set TTL to 255 for outgoing IPv4 unicast packets X-Git-Url: http://git.archive.openwrt.org/?p=project%2Fmdnsd.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=a957c3e347e4f628c77b61a9dc6e49cb81a0efec Set TTL to 255 for outgoing IPv4 unicast packets 1) We SHOULD do this according to the RFC 6762 (Section 11, "Source Address Check"). 2) We already do it for IPv6 unicast and both multicast interfaces 3) When receiving IPv4 packet we ignore it if TTL doesn't equal 255 In other words this is a requirement for working unicast communication between 2 umdns instances (which doesn't seem to work yet though).
