I think we are not supposed to discard the packets like this. This will
create the problems if routing enabled on the node.
This not problem with the IEEE-802.15.4 driver or MAC implementation.
These issues related to IPv6/ICMPv6 (ECHO request and ECHO reply). Here RFC2461/RFC4861 will
come into picture. see:http://www.tahi.org/logo/phase2-core/result/Self_Test_4-0-3/freebsd71.router/nd.p2/
Can you explain the setup..? What h/w you are using. How the network connected..?
