What you'll likely run into here is that the header fields defined in acl-*-header-fields are more or less the lowest common denominators for the application of "acl" - Not all header fields are defined here. I suppose an approach could be to define generic groupings of all header fields and create per application groupings, referencing what is supported with appropriate constraints, etc... Not sure what that buys here since you're likely to have overlap but not complete parity between the different consumers of these packet fields. /ebben _______________________________________________ netmod mailing list netmod@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/netmod
