Hi all,

I just submitted a revision 
(https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-xu-intarea-ip-in-udp-05). Any further 
comments and suggestions are welcome.

BTW, it said in Google's Espresso paper 
(http://www.google.com.hk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwib0cntgfnWAhVHso8KHWF2BmQQFghAMAM&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cs.princeton.edu%2Fcourses%2Farchive%2Ffall17%2Fcos561%2Fpapers%2Fespresso17.pdf&usg=AOvVaw2SgiqQ-ahnvRnEN_QYlxrZ)
 that "...We use a range of addresses for the encap IP header for sufficient 
hashing entropy as switches in the aggregation layer cannot look beyond the 
outer IP header for hashing..." Note that IP-in-GRE and MPLS-in-GRE 
encapsulations are currently used for incoming and outgoing traffic in Google's 
Espresso respectively according to the above paper. I believe that IP-in-UDP 
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-xu-intarea-ip-in-udp-05) and MPLS-in-UDP 
[RFC7510] should be better choices than IP-in-GRE and MPLS-in-GRE respectively 
once the former could be supported by major chip and network vendors. 
Fortunately, MPLS-in-UDP has already been supported by major chip and network 
vendors since its corresponding IETF standard was published. I believe the same 
thing would happen on IP-in-UDP :)

Best regards,
Xiaohu

>    This document specifies additional IP-in-IP encapsulation technology,
>    referred to as IP-in-UDP (User Datagram Protocol), which can
>    facilitate the load balancing of IP-in-IP traffic across IP networks.
