sounds good.

I’d also add before the last sentence:

If the N-bit and V-bit are 0 when the P-bit is set, the middle 16-bits are set 
to 0.

How about this wording Fabio:

P: The P-bit is the Next Protocol bit. When set, the low-order 8 bits is used 
for the Next Protocol field. When the N-bit is also set with the P-bit, the 
Nonce field is the middle 16 bits. When the V bit is also set with the P-bit, 
the Version field is the middle 16 bits. Details on Next Protocol field usage 
are described in [draft-lewis-lisp-gpe].

Comments?
much better.

Thanks,

Definition of the P bit will look like:

    P: The P-bit is the Next Protocol bit. When this bit is set to
       1, Nonce length, when used, is limited to 16 bits and the lenght
       of the Source and Destination Map-Version fields, when used, is limited
       to 8 bits. Refer to [draft-lewis-lisp-gpe] for more details.
       The P-bit is set to 1 to indicate the presence of the 8 bit Next 
Protocol field encoded as:



Do you think the overall proposed extension makes sense?

Thanks,

The use of the P-bit is not compatible with the Map-Versioning feature, but an 
equivalent function can be specified (if needed) with a Next-Protocol shim 
header. I can add text to the LISP-GPE draft to reflect that.
Well it could be. Just like you did with the Nonce field. Make the Version 
field the middle 16-bits. So V and P can be set at the same as well as N and P.

Good point, shortening versions to 8 bits...

Seems fine to me.
