Router solicitation in RFC 6788 context

0

Hello,

I generated a customized router solicitation packet "lio tunneled", following the context of RFC 6788 but Wireshark shows the packet as malformed. I would like to know if there is support for this Line-Identification Option (0x8C)?

Packet generated:

0000   33 33 00 00 00 02 AA BB  CC DD EE FF 86 DD 60 00   33............`.
0010   00 00 00 08 3C FF FE 80  00 00 00 00 00 00 FA 1A   ....<...........
0020   67 FF FE 04 9E EB FF 02  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   g...............
0030   00 00 00 00 00 02 3A 04  8C 02 01 55 85 00 7E 2C   ......:....U..~,
0040   00 00 00 00

Thanks in advance

I take a look at packet IPv6 dissectors of 1.12.1 Wireshark version and these options seem not to be supported yet:

0x08    SMF_DPD     [RFC6621]
0x8B    ILNP Nonce  [RFC6744]
0x8C    Line-Identification Option  [RFC6788]
0x6D    MPL Option  [draft-ietf-roll-trickle-mcast]
0xEE    IP_DFF  [RFC6971]
