In general, I think the idea of this draft is good (the clarity outweighs the loss of flexibility). I have one minor comment. Section 3 of this draft states:
The scheme proposed in this document is backward compatible with all the currently defined IPv6 extension headers except the Fragment Header. This is not 100% correct because AH has a different definition for the header (payload) length field: This 8-bit field specifies the length of AH in 32-bit words (4-byte units), minus "2". (Section 2.2, RFC4302) While this variation doesn't affect the main point of the draft, I think it's better to note that explicitly. --- JINMEI, Tatuya Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
