That seems clear enough. I would expect an addition to draft-ietf-opsec-ipv6-eh-filtering, however. Something like: 3.4.x. Opaque (Protocol Number=TBD) ... 3.4.x.3. Specific Security Implications The security implications of the Opaque header are completely unknown. 3.4.x.4. Operational and Interoperability Impact if Blocked The impact is completely unknown. 3.4.x.5. Advice Intermediate systems should discard packets containing Opaque unless explicitly configured to allow it.
