Hi, all,

I'm getting back to updating this doc, and wanted to come back to this issue...

Is there a reason why the mechanism proposed for IPv6 (which does not reliably include an ID field) is insufficient for IPv4?

Yes this is an optional duplicate detection scheme and is an example of use in 
practice.

Also As Teco mentioned this intended for limited use in edge network multicast 
systems.

Sorry for x-posting. But there is a conflict in:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-manet-smf
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-intarea-ipv4-id-update

SMF has a duplicate packet detection function based on the IPv4
ID field. So text in ietf-intarea-ipv4-id-update section 4
is not correct, in that there would be no deployments for such.
That said, SMF deployment with IPv4 DPD on IP-ID would be limited.

What to do?
