Support the WG adoption of this draft and fully agree with Alia that
it would be much constructive to include more consideration around
MPLS and IP/UDP . For instance, does the MPLS encapsulation need an
explicit protocol identifier field to indicate the payload type in the
long run (e.g., completely eliminate the trouble of first nibble issue
for any future MPLS payload type)?
Xiaohu,
In -02 we added some text about the considerations for the first nibble
over MPLS. But as the rest of the document this is phrased as a
consideration and not a requirement.
Does IP/UDP need a mandatory fragmentation capability on the tunnel layer?
That is a very good question. The IETF and Internet experience is that
successful protocols are likely to be deployed outside of their initial
target domain. So even if the initial target domain(s) don't need
fragmentation it would seem prudent to at least include the option to be
able to do fragmentation and reassembly. (Likewise goes for having
sufficient extensibility to add higher levels of security should the
protocol be used in different domains.)

Erik

I support adopting this draft in RTGWG.
I do hope to see the WG expand it to include more considerations
around MPLS
as well as IP/UDP.
Thanks,
Alia
