  • Create 1 stream block; for this example, we’re going to use a unidirectional one.
  • At the Frame screen, go to the Add Header option at the left menu.  Scroll down and, under Category: IP, you will find the IPv6 Destination Header option; highlight it and hit the OK button at the bottom.
  • Expand the IPv6 Destination Header menu, right-click at the IPv6 Options option, and select Insert Pad1 Option.
