IPv6 and ipfw

[Willem Jan Withagen]

Hi,

Running 7.2 I tried to insert this into my IPFW rules

# ipfw add allow udp from any to 2001:xxx:3::113,2001:xxxx:3::116 \
	dst-port 10001-10100 keep-state
ipfw: bad netmask ``xxxx:3::113''

also:
# ipfw add allow udp from any to trixbox.ip6 dst-port 10001-10100 keep-state
ipfw: hostname ``trixbox.ip6'' unknown
Exit 68
# host trixbox.ip6
trixbox.ip6.digiware.nl has IPv6 address 2001:4cb8:3::116

So it looks like what is in the manual is overly optimistic:
----
      addr6-list: ip6-addr[,addr6-list]

      ip6-addr:
              A host or subnet specified one of the following ways:

              numeric-ip | hostname
                      Matches a single IPv6 address as allowed by inet_pton(3)
                      or a hostname.  Hostnames are resolved at the time the
                      rule is added to the firewall list.

              addr/masklen
                      Matches all IPv6 addresses with base addr (specified as
                      allowed by inet_pton or a hostname) and mask width of
                      masklen bits.

              No support for sets of IPv6 addresses is provided because IPv6
              addresses are typically random past the initial prefix.

Anybody else ran into this?
Or should I file this as a PR.
