Route entry not updated - ICMPv6 Redirect

[srinidhi gopal]

Hi,

I have query regarding the behavior of FreeBSD machine upon receiving ICMPv6 Redirect msg. 

I am using FreeBSD 7 as Host and Linux as Router.
The Router send a ICMPv6 Redirect msg, but the BSD Host doesn't update the routing table.

I have verified all the sysctl values related to redirect :

net.inet.ip.redirect: 1
net.inet.icmp.log_redirect: 0
net.inet.icmp.drop_redirect: 0
net.inet6.ip6.redirect: 1

Kindly help me in resolving this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Srinidhi
