Hi Carlos,

I am not clear what you propose. UDP checksum includes IP header. GRE does not.

Hi, Lucy,

One approach is to add a 3.c) to the list that Ron shared. I think there is 
another potential approach to your initial comment: we could note that for a 
tunneling protocol (GRE), this is equivalent to the relaxation of the UDP 
checksum in RFC 6935, and keep the existing text.

Fred, RFC 2473 does not mention checksums.

Thanks,

Carlos.

That assertion is based on the assumption that the payload destination address 
is worldwide unique.

There are lots of counterexamples that void the assumption, e.g., 10.0.0.0/8.

Thanks,

Hi Ron,

3b) is the concern. GRE payload may be non-IP type. If a gre-in-ipv6 tunnel is 
used for mux of different payload types, the outcome may be unknown and can be 
unacceptable upon IP address and/or GRE header are corrupted.

Lucy,

Why would you object to 3a? Dropping the packet is the preferred behavior?

Also, why would you object to 3b? The packet ends up at the right node, just 
via an unexpected route. Recall that the destination address in the payload 
header is protected by the UDP/TCP checksum.

Are you thinking that there might be a 3c)?

                      Ron

Hi Ron,

1)      and 2 ) are fine. IMO: 3) works under certain conditions but not all.

I add David Black (TSVWG chair) to the thread. He can provide the thorough 
check.

Regards,
Lucy

Lucy,

Would the following text work?

OLD>
   Because the IPv6 delivery header does not include a checksum of its
   own, it is subject to corruption.  However, even if the delivery
   header is corrupted, to likelihood of that corruption resulting in
   misdelivery of the payload is extremely low.
<OLD

NEW>
   Because the IPv6 delivery header does not include a checksum of its
   own,  the destination address in the delivery header is subject to
   corruption. If the destination address in the deliver header is corrupted,
   the following outcomes are possible:

1)      The delivery packet is dropped because the new destination address is 
unreachable
2)      The delivery packet is dropped because the new destination address is 
reachable, but that node is not configured to process GRE delivery packets from 
the ingress
3)      The delivery packet is processed by a GRE egress other than that which 
was originally specified by the GRE ingress. Processing options are:
a.       The payload packet is dropped because the payload destination is 
unreachable from the node that processed the delivery packet
b.      The payload packet is delivered to its intended destination because the 
payload destination is reachable from the node that processed the delivery 
packet

All of these outcomes are acceptable.

Thanks authors to add section 4.1.

I am not sure if the statement of “However, even if the delivery header is 
corrupted, to likelihood of that corruption resulting in misdelivery of the 
payload is extremely low.” is proper. IPv6 requires the end point/upper layer 
to deal with the header corruption. Could we state that this is the difference 
from gre-in-ipv4 instead?
