           Summary: "-m icmpv6" implies "--icmpv6-type 0"
           Product: iptables
           Version: 1.3.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Debian GNU/Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ip6tables
        AssignedTo: laforge at netfilter.org
        ReportedBy: max at duempel.org


When I add a new rule with the following command:

ip6tables -t filter -A INPUT -p ipv6-icmp -m icmpv6 -j ACCEPT

... then ip6tables -L will say:

0 0 ACCEPT icmpv6 * * ::/0 ::/0 ipv6-icmp type 0 

The ip6tables manpage says "--icmpv6-type" is optional.
