    [Folks, I posted this to ipfw@ last week, but had no takers over there.
    Anyone here want to take a stab at it? Thanks in advance!]

    I am looking for a little sanity check here. I have a gif tunnel set up for
    IPv6, and I am passing protocol 41 through the ipfw pipe/queue mechanism
    to/from my tunnel provider (part of a grander pipe/queue scheme due to my
    new Vonage service :). A couple of questions:

    1) Am I correct in assuming that all IPv6 traffic that I am permitting via
    ip6fw is governed by the pipe/queue rules that I have configured for
    protocol 41 in ipfw?

    2) If #1 is true, is there a way for me to use pipes/queues within ip6fw
    itself to discriminate by type of IPv6 traffic?

    Thanks for the info!
