Folks, I have just published an Internet-Draft entitled "Security Assessment of the IPv6 Flow Label" that analyzes the security implications of the Flow Label header field, and proposes a scheme to set the Flow Label that is compliant with RFC 3697, and compatible with draft-blake-ipv6-flow-label-nonce-02.
The I-D is available at: http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-gont-6man-flowlabel-security-00.txt Thanks!
