Hi, I have posted a new version of FAST. I apologize for cross posting, I believe this topic likely belongs in int-area, however there has been related discussion in tsvwg.
General discussion of host to network signaling is removed and draft-herbert-host2netsig is referenced for that. FAST is now described as a carrier protocol for host to network signaling. Added descriptions and requirements for removing tickets from packets, including by removing the Hop-by-Hop Options header containing tickets. Made various clarifications to protocol format description. Added a section on router implementation considerations. Added a request for an IANA registry for Ticket Types. Any comments are welcome!

Name: draft-herbert-fast Revision: 07 Title: Firewall and Service Tickets Date: 2023-10-07 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 24 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-herbert-fast-07.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-herbert-fast/ HTMLized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-herbert-fast Diff: https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-herbert-fast-07 Abstract: This document describes the Firewalls and Service Tickets (FAST) protocol. This is a generic and extensible protocol for hosts to signal network nodes to request services or to gain admission into a network. A ticket is data that accompanies a packet and indicates a granted right to traverse a network or a request for network services to be applied (in the latter case the ticket serves as a service profile). Applications request tickets from a local agent in their network and attach issued tickets to packets. Firewall tickets are issued to grant packets the right to traverse a network; service tickets indicate the desired service to be applied to packets. A single ticket may provide both firewall and service ticket information and semantics. Tickets are sent in IPv6 Hop-by-Hop options.
