2   This file defines the EFI IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6)
3   Protocol interface. It is split into the following three main
4   sections:
5   - EFI IPv6 Service Binding Protocol
6   - EFI IPv6 Variable (deprecated in UEFI 2.4B)
7   - EFI IPv6 Protocol
8   The EFI IPv6 Protocol provides basic network IPv6 packet I/O services,
9   which includes support for Neighbor Discovery Protocol (ND), Multicast
10   Listener Discovery Protocol (MLD), and a subset of the Internet Control
11   Message Protocol (ICMPv6).
