A IPV6 triple

Hey Peter,
    No, the 'udp' is just udp, but the L3 flow id is ipv6, so if you  
filtered on
'ipv6' you'd get the udp lines as well as the 'ipv6-icmp', which is a  
different
protocol number from 'icmp'.

    I don't understand the issue with macs, as my data has macs in it.
do you mean argus?  my argus is doing macs fine but I have
ARGUS_GENERATE_MAC_DATA=yes in my system /etc/argus.conf file.
Default is to NOT generate mac data, this may need to documented.

    IPv6 only has an ipid when there is fragmentation (is in an optional
header section).

    When you see "::" in an IPv6 address, that means that the values on
either side of the "::" are separated by zero's (as long as needed to
separate the values on either side).
