Same issue with the routers in the path. IPv10 would require *all* of

What will happen with one router from a specific company will happen with all
routers from the same vendors, inserting updates is not that hard,
Khaled,
Please try to view your proposal from the operational side too.
Designing a protocol wire representation and implementing that for some
platform is quite trivial compared to the changes that are needed for
the network support systems, the effort required for validation of that
new functionality before the deployment, and the feasibility of doing
the actual flag day deployment. For any practically sized operator that
would be an exercise of years with associated costs of very substantial
nature. Please make yourself more familiar with network operational
realities.
