Gentle people, We discovered a bug in the IPv6 fragmentation tracking code where = fragments we=E2=80=99re not being hashed to its parent IPv6 flow, = causing argus to generate =E2=80=9C f =E2=80=9C status indications = on some IPv6 flows (lower case =E2=80=98f=E2=80=99 is a flow record that = represents fragments that couldn=E2=80=99t be mapped to its original = flow). The flow data is correct, in that we=E2=80=99re accounting for = the fragmented traffic, but we aren=E2=80=99t doing the right thing. We have a fix, and are testing it now. If you are monitoring IPv6 and = see some of these flows, send me a note, and I=E2=80=99ll try to get the = fix to you, if you would like to test it. Hope all is most excellent, Carter=
