关于Scapy中IPv6地址的问题

Question

I'm using scapy in python2.6 and met an issue about the IPv6 address:

from scapy.all import *
p = IPv6(src = '1:0:0:1::1', dst = '2:0:0:2::2')
print p.src, p.dst
p.show()

it seems that scapy replaced every continuation of '0' with '::', the result of the print turned out to be:

1::1::1 2::2::2

and the p.show() part raised an exception complaining illegal syntax for IP address.

Is this a problem unsolved in scapy or are there some configuration not right in scapy? thx in advance.

Answer 1

I'm having the same issue on my Fedora 26 installation. After some searching in the github issue-list of the scapy project. I've discovered following bug-reports and fixes:

Bugreport: Zero block in IPv6 route prefix misinterpreted #359

changeset 1 (note: for linux/unix only )

changeset 2 (note: for windows and linux/unix )

These changes were made in Dec 16/Jan 17. Version 2.3.3 dates from oct 2016. So when 2.3.4 is released, they will contain these 2 fixes.
