Anton,

I'm trying to understand your argument.

As I understand in GUE the security parameter is there to provide additional assurance for the VNID. The NVO3 VNID is part of the GUE proposed NVO3 encapsulation and most (all?) of the other potential encapsulation forms. It seems odd to have the VNID be part of an NVO3 header while the cookie/hash to provide better assurance of the content of the VNID field be part of a service chaining header.
If you do that, shouldn't the VNID also be moved out from NVO3 to SFC?

Regards,
   Erik
