Well, this RFC only changes the “unassigned” code points outlined in rfc7385 
which in turn is already folded into IANA assignments. It does not changes any 
of the existing code points assignments for tunnel types, experimental, and 
reserved mentioned in rfc7385. So, as long as we update the IANA assignments 
with this new request, we are covered – with or without mentioning rfc7385 
(IMHO). If you have strong objection, I can remove reference to rfc7385; 
otherwise, we can keep it as it should provide a better context for the reader 
(e.g., why we need to assign mirror code points).

Cheers,
Ali

I was referring to this document being marked as Updating rfc7385.

In any case, that works for me.

Thanks!

Alvaro.

Hi Alvaro,

I am not modifying rfc7385 but rather trying to maintain backward/forward 
compatibility with it. The reason, I am defining additional “experimental" and 
“reserved” code points, is to maintain backward/forward compatibility with the 
rfc7385 code points. The new “experimental” and “reserved” code points (i.e., 
0x7B – 0x7E, and 0x7F) are mirror images of the ones in rfc7385 (i.e., 0xFB – 
0xFE, and 0xFF). If I don’t create these mirror images and leave them 
“unassigned”, then if somebody creates a tunnel type of 0x7B, then the 
corresponding composite tunnel type of that would be 0xFB which will conflict 
with existing code points in rfc7385 (i.e., 0xFB is defined as experimental).

Cheers,
Ali

Hi!

RFC7385 already defines an Experimental range, why do we need another one?  
Same question about reserving 0x7F (if rfc7385 already reserved 0xFF).

One of the reasons I’m asking is because if you’re only changing the 0x0C – 
0xFA range, which is currently unassigned, the you (1) only need to include 
those values in this document, and (2) you don’t need to Update rfc7385:

Thanks!

Alvaro.

Hi Alvaro,

You’re right. I had some holes in my assignment. Following should fix it.

   0x0C-0x7AUnassigned
   0x7B-0x7EExperimentalthis document
   0x7FReservedthis document
   0x80-0xFAReserved for Composite tunnelthis document
   0xFB-0xFEExperimental RFC7385]
   0xFFReserved[RFC7385]

Thanks,
Ali

Ali:

Hi!

So, you’re really only changing the 0x0C – 0xFA range, right?

If my hex is not wrong, you’re missing some pieces below: 0x40-0x7F, and 
0xC0-0xCF, which I’m assume remain Unassigned, right?

Thanks!

Alvaro.
