Jingrong,

What text do you propose?

Thanks,
Pablo.

    I agree with Joel, and strongly opposed to the proposal text !
    
    "The value TBD in the Next Header field of an IPv6 header or any extension 
header indicates that the payload content is identified via the segment 
identifier in the IPv6 Destination Address."
    
    It is a hole digging to exclude other possible ways of indication of 
'Opaque Payload format', for example, use IPv6 Source Address, or use options 
in EH to identify.
    
    As I raise this question in March, I haven't expect the proposal would be 
so tricky! 
    
    Thanks
    Jingrong

    1) The way you wrote the text, it would apply to carried IPv4 or carried 
IPv6.
    
    2) If it is carried Ethernet, us 97.
    2') If you insist that you need a new format for carried Ethernet after 
SRH, get a code point for that.
    
    3) If there is some other use case, document it and get a code point for 
it.  particularly given that SID meanings may not be registered, removing teh 
ability to tell what the payload is seems a drawback, not a benefit.
    
    Yours,
    Joel
