All,

just a quick heads up: flowfilter (aka flowspec aka inetflow) does not 
work with ipv6. And it took JTAC just two weeks to figure it out...

A shame, really, as flowfilter is one of the best features ever. I hope 
they'll add v6 sooner rather than later, it's an invaluable tool for v4. 
I don't want to go back to having to blackhole /128s...

Kind regards,

Felix
