Hi WG,

I support this adoption.


But I have a few comments/questions after reading the draft.


a) Terms such as "SFC, DCN, RAN, NRP" in the draft are not defined in the 
"Terminology" section. Defining them might make the content easier to 
understand.
 
b) The draft mentions GIP6 as a "generalized IPv6 tunnel", is it entirely based 
on existing IPv6 extension header, e.g., HBH, SRH?


c) If intermediate devices do not support GIP6, is there a fallback mechanism? 
For example, stripping extension headers or reverting to legacy tunnels (e.g., 
MPLS)?


Best regards,


Guozhen

The draft was presented at IETF122, and a poll was done after the presentation:
Poll for "Should the WG work on a general tunneling mechanism that
supports iOAM etc.?"
Yes(24) No(11) No Opinion(7)
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/minutes-122-rtgwg-202503200230/


Please review the document and send your support or objection to the mailing
