Hi,

I had a look to this document and have a couple of comments.

- The document does not explain why the original destination of the packet that 
experiences congestion has to be put in an IPv6 extension header. What is the 
technical reason?
Because in principle that information can be retrieved in the Infiniband 
Address Vector using the destination QPN which can be found in the BTH sent 
back with the Fast CNP packet.

- In section 4 the text seems to imply that the sender is able to categories  
addresses as receivers vs non-receivers. Is my understanding correct? 

- In the Security section it is mentioned that implementations have to 
implement an access list to for source address checking, but such an access 
list does not protect against an attacker spoofing the source address.
Any hint how to solve the issue?

Thanks

Ciao

L.
