Hello, This might be of interest to DMM group.
The basic idea of FAST (Firewall and Service Tickets) is to allow applications to signal to the network the services they want for their flows. The granted services are expressed in "tickets" that an application sets in packet of of a flow (destination or nexthop options EH). Tickets are interpreted by the ingress node of the network and services are applied (QoS, diffserv, map to network slice, encapsulation, etc.). Tickets are reflected by peers to get services applied in the reverse direction. They are also stateless and in fact a goal of FAST is to reduce flow state in the network.

A ticket is data that accompanies a packet and indicates a granted right to traverse a network or a request for network service to be applied. Applications request tickets from a local agent in the 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 a packets. A single ticket may provide both firewall and service ticket information. Tickets are sent in either IPv6 Destination options or Hop-by-Hop options. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
