internet node ipv6 hop-by-hop option

Is it possible some internet nodes do no support the hop-by-hop option header of ICMPv6 packets?

it seems hop-by-hop option headers are read by all nodes on the path.

my problem is the following:

my kaspersky antivirus KIS 2018 adds hop-by-hop option (seen in wireshark) to the ICMPv6 packets send by the windows 10 ping cmd ping command and I don't get a reply. In tracert cmd I see the first 3 routers are passed but after this there is an endless timeout.

Sorry I didn't mention I do net get a reply from ICMPv6 pings from my home PC to all ipv6 internet sites

I think this forum has the most knowledge of internet nodes.

Your anti virus should not be using the hop by hop extension header. I would recommend you open a ticket with Kapersky to fix this issue.
