Hi,

Please allow me to ask a novice question.

My naive question here is do we really need to distinguish header and
payload when we apply protections?
I mean, if there's no significant overhead differences, why bother
checking the boundary between header and payload, or checking TCP
flags? Can't we simply protect a TCP segment?
Or, the discussion point is not overhead, but interactions with
middleboxes that update TCP headers or payloads?

Thanks,
