["Seong Moon" <seong@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Wrt. my test result, you can refer to following URL
 http://circle.etri.re.kr/~seong/
at which are the test results of linux IPv6 Router and Host.
Environment setting is as follows :
1. TAHI package version : 2.0
2. System of NUT : usagi-i386
3. Kernel :
ftp.linux-ipv6.org:/pub/usagi/stable/package/redhat/RPMS/i686/20020408/kerne
l-2.4.18-3_usagi_20020408.i686.rpm

As you can see at the above URL, the results is not better than the results
of
http://www.linux-ipv6.org/tahitest/stable-20020408/summary-index.html.
I know the only difference of the two tests is TAHI package version.
