From 99cd07a537bf4c7c954f31611e30064407104410 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juha-Matti Tapio Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2008 20:55:46 -0800 Subject: [IPV6]: Fix source address selection for ORCHID addresses Skip the prefix length matching in source address selection for orchid -> non-orchid addresses. Overlay Routable Cryptographic Hash IDentifiers (RFC 4843, 2001:10::/28) are currenty not globally reachable. Without this check a host with an ORCHID address can end up preferring those over regular addresses when talking to other regular hosts in the 2001::/16 range thus breaking non-orchid connections.
