Subject: [nvo3] comments for draft-ietf-nvo3-vxlan-gpe

Hi Authors,
Several comments when I review the draft.
1. Since you define the I bit in the 8bit-flags, it is better to define what if 
receiving packet with I-bit set to 0. Could we define I-bit with 0 as public 
packets which will not do any isolation process among VNI? It is useful when we 
only want to use the transportability of VXLAN-GPE, instead of isolation 
ability.
Lucy: Good point. This is related to the protocol scope. Current VXLAN-gpe 
protocol mandates I-bit set to 1 like VXLAN. Should we expand the protocol to 
support I-bit set to 0? If not, receiving should ignore and drop the packet 
with I-bit set to 0, which just a clarification. If yes, what the new scope 
should be?

Lucy
2. It seems the DiffServ and ECN marking are missing in the document.
