My understanding is that you want to measure from the encapsulating NVE
to the decapsulating NVE. Is that correct?
[weiguo]: Right.
The outer IP+NVO3 headers travel from NVE to NVE, thus I don't
understand why we should consider the fields in that outer header
differently than the fields in the NVO3 header.

Are you concerned about the DSCP bit? (Those are different than the ECN
bits).
[weiguo]: Sorry, after i discussed with some experts, the 2 bits can be in
outer IP header or NVO3 header, both methods can discriminate the flow of
different tenants. But outer IP header has no extra space for these two bits,
ECN bits had better not be multiplexed. So the two marking bits had better be
included in NVO3 header.
