Dear authors This draft strikes me as very mature for a 00, and a very useful piece of work as well. It looks like you have implemented and tried it out already, correct?
A few comments and questions: * Since you are using IEs Fig 1 could represent the insertion before the IPv6 payload. * There could be a Fig describing the typical format of the inserted IE at the end of 2.2 * A discussion on the chances of loss that are augmented as the frame are enlarged could be useful in the intro * A discussion of the INT header used as a hidden channel could be useful in the security section * It seems that the data can only be reported on packets that are going outwards. You may want to indicate that in a classical non-storing network with the root acting as backbone router, all packets fly through the 6BBR and can be instrumented. * Because of the Q bit it seems that the INT IE is also used in packets going down: the source routing header may make it complicated to instrument such packets. More description on the operation and size of inserted header in downwards packets could be useful. Maybe we could make the query a different IE altogether and save the Q bit for the future. * If the telemetry relates to a transmission by a child, then the node ID is not enough to identify the link since the child has multiple parents. * Apparently in HbH mode 1 only the first nodes may insert data if the network is deep and the room limited. * In HbH mode 2, how do we balance the use of the space so that all hops have an equal chance to report their information? Is that what 2.3.1 is all about? * In section 2.3 ** I believe that if nodes use different strategies some may starve. Like for the objective function, there should be a single strategy, that may have to be tuned for the shape of the network. ** in 2.3.1 if all nodes source traffic and not only the deepest ones, actually the nodes near the root may have more opportunities, it really depends on the shape of the network. ** in 2.3.2 we seem to assume that only nodes deep in the network source packets. In reality, say that there can be 3 values stored, then the number of chances is proportional to the number of children and grandchildren, and nodes deep in the network may have less of these. ** it could be good that a node that refrains to insert redundant information may still indicate that already sent information (sequence) is unchanged. Along that line of thought how do we handle loss? A same sequence sent several times? * Security section should indicate that the payload IE is modified at each hop and there is no guarantee that the original information is preserved Great work!
