I haven't seen any discussion of this on this list - there has been some on MBONED.

So far, we have as users for this flexibility

AMT (the original need)

LISP and

(According to Dave Thaler) maybe UDP-ESP (RFC 3948) across a NAT64.

If people here have comments on these uses, or know of other uses, please comment on this list. Of course, any and all other comments, suggestions, or brickbats will be welcomed.

Regards
Marshall

P.S. Please note that this draft was largely written by Philip Chimento. I don't know how the XML process
lead to me being the only author - this will be fixed in the next round.

All,
Here is the draft that proposes to loosen the UDP checksum rule for IPv6. I would appreciated if discussions of this draft occur on the 6MAN mailing list ([email protected]).

We address the problem of computing the UDP checksum on tunneling
IPv6 packets when using lightweight tunneling protocols.
