Hi Éric,

Thank your for the comments. I will start by the easy one:

"I still wonder why the tcpOptions and ipv6ExtensionHeaders are in the same I-D 
though ;-)"

This was mainly for the authors convenience to avoid many I-Ds. We defer to the 
Chairs for this one.

Cheers,
Med

Objet : [OPSAWG] Some comments on draft-ietf-opsawg-ipfix-tcpo-v6eh

Benoît and Med,

Thanks for this useful document, please find below some comments (obviously 
without any hat).

Should the "No Next-Header" (next-header=59) be included (cfr my other remarks 
on the companion I-D) ?

There should be a way to convey the information that the exporter was (un)able 
to parse the *full* extension header chain due to HW limitation. This could be 
done by adding a bit/counter "KNOWN" (the opposite of UNKNOWN in the sense of a 
known layer-4 header).

About having counters per extension header how is "This Information Element 
echoes the order and number of occurrences" to be interpreted for the following 
flow?

HBH-RH-DST
HBH-DST-RH-FRA0-DST
HBH-DST-RH-FRA1-...
RH-DST

Will it be a single IE with HBH=3, DST=5, RH=3, FRA0=1, FRA1=1 or 4 IE exported 
(one for each chain) ?

I think that the 4 IE sounds more logical and useful, then there is no need to 
count the occurrences of one specific EH but more how often a specific EH chain 
was seen.

I still wonder why the tcpOptions and ipv6ExtensionHeaders are in the same I-D 
though ;-)

Hope this helps,

-éric
