Hi list,
On my machine, if I generate the following IPv6 flood:
ip -6 neigh add fe80::1234 dev eth0 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nc -6 -u fe80::1234%eth0 1234 < /dev/zero
The traffic reported by iftop is much less than the reality, as iftop can't read packets off pcap fast enough. This patch only demonstrate the problem, I don't intend for it to be applied. I haven't started to dig into the cause yet.
