ICMPv6: Echo Request Resent
This protocol anomaly triggers when it detects an ICMPv6 echo request retransmission (for example, with the same ID and sequence numbers). Because ICMPv6 is unreliable, echo request retransmissions are rare and can indicate data tunneling over ICMPv6 if accompanied by other ICMPv6 exploit activity.
