About 10 years ago we started doing measurements about the extent to which IPv6 Extension Headers are usable on the public Internet (e.g., see: https://t.co/Uv6C5ogWea)

Great work by @FernandoGont et al. on performing recon in IPv6 networks:
RFC 7707 Network Reconnaissance in IPv6 Networks

@Enno_Insinuator @FernandoGont Actually... several of the functionalities of NMAP are based, on a certain degree, on @FernandoGont 's work. That is because his work was a big inspiration at the time I helped to write the NSE scripts.

This bring me some memories from that time.

Numeric Identifiers.... one step forward? https://t.co/sgFPMQ76LI cc: @4Dgifts
