Hi Authors,
Transit device. A forwarding element along the path of the tunnel.
A transit device MAY be capable of understanding the Geneve frame
format but does not originate or terminate Geneve packets.
Could you give an example of such transit device? I do not call a firewall
device

Why does the header need to indicate how the packet is to be forwarded?
Since the packet is terminated, how to forward it or process it is an
otherwise local decision.
OAM would be better served to be expressed in an EtherType to eliminate
awkward semantics of the bit,
so then all geneve
