I am looking at the text of section 4.2, and I am not sure how I would
implement that. What should be the value of the config rotation bits in
CID created by the server? Should the 6 other bits in the first octet be
set to a CID Len or to a random value? Is the timer set when the server
ID is first added to the table, or is the timer reset each time a packet
is received with that CID? In the latter case, is it reset when any
packet is received, or only when a "first initial" packet is received?

If the DCID is not understood by the LB, the LB chooses a random
target server but does not store any state. The expectation being
that the server will assign its own DCID on the return path.
The LB will understand how to route the server assigned DCID. The
problem being that this generally requires shared state - which
Low-Config aims to avoid in exchange of local state.
