ICMPv6 header length != 8 bits #136

Sur cette page, il est écrit que

Each ICMP message contains an 8 bits header with a type field, a code field and a 16 bits checksum computed over the entire ICMPv6 message.

Cette phrase laisse entendre que la longueur totale d'un en-tête ICMPv6 est de 8 bits alors que ce sont les champs "type" et "code" qui ont chacun une longueur de 8 bits.
