Hi,

I'm running Wireshark on a wired laptop running Windows XP.

I'm also running 2 VirtualBox VMs (Linux and Freebsd) on it: One is running
IPv4 pings and the other IPv6 ping6. All pings are responding (0% packet loss)

But on Wireshark I can see IPv4 packets but I can't see any IPv6 (ICMPv6)
packets ! 

However, I noticed that I can see ICMPv6 RS/RA and NS/NA only, when the OS of
the VM are booting or on each NS update...

Is seems to be a bug, or an unimplemented mecanism ?

Philippe
