RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 19951. Introduction   The Internet Protocol, version 6 (IPv6) is a new version of IP.  IPv6   uses the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) as defined for IPv4   [RFC-792], with a number of changes.  The Internet Group Membership   Protocol (IGMP) specified for IPv4 [RFC-1112] has also been revised   and has been absorbed into ICMP for IPv6. The resulting protocol is   called ICMPv6, and has an IPv6 Next Header value of 58.   This document describes the format of a set of control messages used   in ICMPv6.  It does not describe the procedures for using these   messages to achieve functions like Path MTU discovery or multicast   group membership maintenance; such procedures are described in other   documents (e.g., [RFC-1112,RFC-1191]).  Other documents may also   introduce additional ICMPv6 message types, such as Neighbor Discovery   messages [IPv6-DISC], subject to the general rules for ICMPv6   messages given insection 2 of this document.   Terminology defined in the IPv6 specification [IPv6] and the IPv6   Routing and Addressing specification [IPv6-ADDR] applies to this   document as well.2. ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)   ICMPv6 is used by IPv6 nodes to report errors encountered in   processing packets, and to perform other internet-layer functions,   such as diagnostics (ICMPv6 "ping") and multicast membership   reporting.  ICMPv6 is an integral part of IPv6 and MUST be fully   implemented by every IPv6 node.2.1 Message General Format   ICMPv6 messages are grouped into two classes: error messages and   informational messages.  Error messages are identified as such by   having a zero in the high-order bit of their message Type field   values.  Thus, error messages have message Types from 0 to 127;   informational messages have message Types from 128 to 255.   This document defines the message formats for the following ICMPv6   messages:Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 3]

RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 1995        ICMPv6 error messages:             1    Destination Unreachable      (seesection 3.1)             2    Packet Too Big               (seesection 3.2)             3    Time Exceeded                (seesection 3.3)             4    Parameter Problem            (seesection 3.4)        ICMPv6 informational messages:             128  Echo Request                 (seesection 4.1)             129  Echo Reply                   (seesection 4.2)             130  Group Membership Query       (seesection 4.3)             131  Group Membership Report      (seesection 4.3)             132  Group Membership Reduction   (seesection 4.3)   Every ICMPv6 message is preceded by an IPv6 header and zero or more   IPv6 extension headers. The ICMPv6 header is identified by a Next   Header value of 58 in the immediately preceding header.  (NOTE: this   is different than the value used to identify ICMP for IPv4.)   The ICMPv6 messages have the following general format:       0                   1                   2                   3       0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |     Type      |     Code      |          Checksum             |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                                                               |      +                         Message Body                          +      |                                                               |   The type field indicates the type of the message. Its value   determines the format of the remaining data.   The code field depends on the message type. It is used to create an   additional level of message granularity.   The checksum field is used to detect data corruption in the ICMPv6   message and parts of the IPv6 header.2.2 Message Source Address Determination   A node that sends an ICMPv6 message has to determine both the Source   and Destination IPv6 Addresses in the IPv6 header before calculating   the checksum.  If the node has more than one unicast address, it must   choose the Source Address of the message as follows:Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 4]

RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 1995    (a) If the message is a response to a message sent to one of the        node's unicast addresses, the Source Address of the reply must        be that same address.    (b) If the message is a response to a message sent to a multicast or        anycast group in which the node is a member, the Source Address        of the reply must be a unicast address belonging to the        interface on which the multicast or anycast packet was received.    (c) If the message is a response to a message sent to an address        that does not belong to the node, the Source Address should be        that unicast address belonging to the node that will be most        helpful in diagnosing the error. For example, if the message is        a response to a packet forwarding action that cannot complete        successfully, the Source Address should be a unicast address        belonging to the interface on which the packet forwarding        failed.    (d) Otherwise, the node's routing table must be examined to        determine which interface will be used to transmit the message        to its destination, and a unicast address belonging to that        interface must be used as the Source Address of the message.2.3 Message Checksum Calculation   The checksum is the 16-bit one's complement of the one's complement   sum of the entire ICMPv6 message starting with the ICMPv6 message   type field, prepended with a "pseudo-header" of IPv6 header fields,   as specified in [IPv6,section 8.1].  The Next Header value used in   the pseudo-header is 58.  (NOTE: the inclusion of a pseudo-header in   the ICMPv6 checksum is a change from IPv4; see [IPv6] for the   rationale for this change.)   For computing the checksum, the checksum field is set to zero.2.4 Message Processing Rules   Implementations MUST observe the following rules when processing   ICMPv6 messages (from [RFC-1122]):    (a) If an ICMPv6 error message of unknown type is received, it MUST        be passed to the upper layer.    (b) If an ICMPv6 informational message of unknown type is received,        it MUST be silently discarded.Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 5]

RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 1995    (c) Every ICMPv6 error message (type < 128) includes as much of the        IPv6 offending (invoking) packet (the packet that caused the        error) as will fit without making the error message packet        exceed 576 octets.    (d) In those cases where the internet-layer protocol is required to        pass an ICMPv6 error message to the upper-layer protocol, the        upper-layer protocol type is extracted from the original packet        (contained in the body of the ICMPv6 error message) and used to        select the appropriate upper-layer protocol entity to handle the        error.        If the original packet had an unusually large amount of        extension headers, it is possible that the upper-layer protocol        type may not be present in the ICMPv6 message, due to truncation        of the original packet to meet the 576-octet limit.  In that        case, the error message is silently dropped after any IPv6-layer        processing.    (e) An ICMPv6 error message MUST NOT be sent as a result of        receiving:         (e.1) an ICMPv6 error message, or         (e.2) a packet destined to an IPv6 multicast address (there are               two exceptions to this rule: (1) the Packet Too Big               Message -Section 3.2 - to allow Path MTU discovery to               work for IPv6 multicast, and (2) the Parameter Problem               Message, Code 2 -Section 3.4 - reporting an unrecognized               IPv6 option that has the Option Type highest-order two               bits set to 10), or         (e.3) a packet sent as a link-layer multicast, (the exception               from e.2 applies to this case too), or         (e.4) a packet sent as a link-layer broadcast, (the exception               from e.2 applies to this case too), or         (e.5) a packet whose source address does not uniquely identify               a single node -- e.g., the IPv6 Unspecified Address, an               IPv6 multicast address, or an address known by the ICMP               message sender to be an IPv6 anycast address.    (f) Finally, to each sender of an erroneous data packet, an IPv6        node MUST limit the rate of ICMPv6 error messages sent, in order        to limit the bandwidth and forwarding costs incurred by the        error messages when a generator of erroneous packets does not        respond to those error messages by ceasing its transmissions.Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 6]

RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 1995        There are a variety of ways of implementing the rate-limiting        function, for example:         (f.1) Timer-based - for example, limiting the rate of               transmission of error messages to a given source, or to               any source, to at most once every T milliseconds.         (f.2)  Bandwidth-based - for example, limiting the rate at               which error messages are sent from a particular interface               to some fraction F of the attached link's bandwidth.        The limit parameters (e.g., T or F in the above examples) MUST        be configurable for the node, with a conservative default value        (e.g., T = 1 second, NOT 0 seconds, or F = 2 percent, NOT 100        percent).   The following sections describe the message formats for the above   ICMPv6 messages.Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 7]

It must be initialized to zero by the sender                  and ignored by the receiver.   Description   A Destination Unreachable message SHOULD be generated by a router, or   by the IPv6 layer in the originating node, in response to a packet   that cannot be delivered to its destination address for reasons other   than congestion.  (An ICMPv6 message MUST NOT be generated if a   packet is dropped due to congestion.)   If the reason for the failure to deliver is lack of a matching entry   in the forwarding node's routing table, the Code field is set to 0   (NOTE: this error can occur only in nodes that do not hold a "default   route" in their routing tables).Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 8]

RFC 1885                 ICMPv6 (ICMP for IPv6)            December 1995   If the reason for the failure to deliver is administrative   prohibition, e.g., a "firewall filter", the Code field is set to 1.   If the reason for the failure to deliver is that the next destination   address in the Routing header is not a neighbor of the processing   node but the "strict" bit is set for that address, then the Code   field is set to 2.   If there is any other reason for the failure to deliver, e.g.,   inability to resolve the IPv6 destination address into a   corresponding link address, or a link-specific problem of some sort,   then the Code field is set to 3.   A destination node SHOULD send a Destination Unreachable message with   Code 4 in response to a packet for which the transport protocol   (e.g., UDP) has no listener, if that transport protocol has no   alternative means to inform the sender.   Upper layer notification   A node receiving the ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable message MUST   notify the upper-layer protocol.Conta & Deering             Standards Track                     [Page 9]

Description   A Packet Too Big MUST be sent by a router in response to a packet   that it cannot forward because the packet is larger than the MTU of   the outgoing link.  The information in this message is used as part   of the Path MTU Discovery process [RFC-1191].   Sending a Packet Too Big Message makes an exception to one of the   rules of when to send an ICMPv6 error message, in that unlike other   messages, it is sent in response to a packet received with an IPv6   multicast destination address, or a link-layer multicast or link-   layer broadcast address.   Upper layer notification   An incoming Packet Too Big message MUST be passed to the upper-layer   protocol.Conta & Deering             Standards Track                    [Page 10]

It must be initialized to zero by the sender                  and ignored by the receiver.   Description   If a router receives a packet with a Hop Limit of zero, or a router   decrements a packet's Hop Limit to zero, it MUST discard the packet   and send an ICMPv6 Time Exceeded message with Code 0 to the source of   the packet.  This indicates either a routing loop or too small an   initial Hop Limit value.   The router sending an ICMPv6 Time Exceeded message with Code 0 SHOULD   consider the receiving interface of the packet as the interface on   which the packet forwarding failed in following rule (d) for   selecting the Source Address of the message.
