yes, sect 4 of RFC 2460:
A full implementation of IPv6 includes implementation of the
following extension headers:
Hop-by-Hop Options
Routing (Type 0)
Fragment
Destination Options
Authentication
Encapsulating Security Payload
The first four are specified in this document; the last two are
specified in [RFC-2402] and [RFC-2406], respectively.
4.1 Extension Header Order
When more than one extension header is used in the same packet, it is
recommended that those headers appear in the following order:
IPv6 header
Hop-by-Hop Options header
Destination Options header (note 1)
Routing header
Fragment header

Subject: Is there an official Extension Headers List?
Hello,
I just wonder if any *official* summarization of currently existing IPv6
extension headers exists.
The only way I found to determine all headers is to step through the IANA
protocol numbers list and check in the references whether the according
protocol has a defined IPv6 extension header.
As far as I see it a complete current list would be:
Hop-by-Hop Option 0
Routing Header 43
Fragment Header 44
AH 51
ESP 50
Destination Options 60
Mobility Header 135
Host Identity Protocol 139
Shim6 Protocol 140
Is there something I missed or misinterpreted? Or is there actually an official
list (a citable source would fit my needs best)?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Stefan
