Hello Libor,
ich published a I-D: "IPv6 Extension Headers Reserved Space"
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pfeifer-6man-exthdr-res-01
which try to address some of the problems. Introducing a new "number
model" don't work, but maybe a solution somewhere between - as presented in
the I-D - may address the problem adequate.
Cheers, Hagen
Hello Hagen,
we are probably hijacking the thread little bit, but I support your
draft. Minor correction though:
sec 1, 2nd paragraph
One exception is is the hop-by-hop -> One exception is the hop-by-hop
I am not sure if you can request IANA for specific range (someone else
might want the same numbers at the same time). Maybe, it will be safer
if you request 8 consecutive protocol numbers and rephrase IANA
Considerations to something like:
This document includes a request to IANA. The editors of this draft
request the 8 consecutive protocol numbers IP6_EXTHDR_RESERVED_MIN till
IP6_EXTHDR_RESERVED_MAX be reserved for uniform formated IPv6 extension
header.
Additionally, replace numerical constants in the text with these names.
Best wishes,
Libor
