From 8953de2f02ad7b15e4964c82f9afd60f128e4e98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Manning Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2017 09:55:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: allow IPv6 when multicast flood is disabled Even with multicast flooding turned off, IPv6 ND should still work so that IPv6 connectivity is provided. Allow this by continuing to flood multicast traffic originated by us.
