>Organization:
>Environment:
NetBSD 10.1_STABLE amd64
>Description:
To allow IPv6 traffic to traverse routers, a rule like
"pass final family inet6 proto ipv6-icmp all" is needed in npf.conf.
However, npf.conf(5) manpage doesn't contain any description of
"ipv6-icmp" keyword.

I have encountered it on NetBSD 10.1, but netbsd-11 appears to have
the same issue.

>How-To-Repeat:
% man npf.conf
or
% cd src/usr.sbin/npf
% grep -r ipv6-icmp

>Fix:
I don't have.
