Abstract:

   This document describes the ICMPv6 Reflection utility.  ICMPv6
   Reflection uses a request-response handshake that is similar to
   ICMPv6 Echo, except that after a request is sent, the corresponding
   reply includes the request message itself or a subset of its fields
   as specified in the request.  Specifically, the IPv6 header of the
   request message and its IPv6 extension headers, if they are present,
   can be included in the reply.  Network operators can use ICMPv6
   Reflection to determine how IPv6 extension headers have been altered
   by transit nodes.
