IP6Mirror

swaps IP6 source and destination

SYNOPSIS§

IP6Mirror

Batching: Batching natively supported
Ports: 1 input, 1 output
Processing: agnostic

DESCRIPTION§

Incoming packets must have their IP6 header annotations set. Swaps packets' source and destination IP6 addresses. Packets containing TCP or UDP headers---that is, first fragments of packets with protocol 6 or 17---also have their source and destination ports swapped.

The TCP or UDP checksums are not changed. They don't need to be; these swap operations do not affect checksums.
