Can you explain some more what the encoding would look like if additional options were defined (including ones that are potentially mutually exclusive)? The Geneve options are binary but that is coming directly from the protocol specification. However, this isn't an on the wire format so I'm not sure what it would look like or how it would be defined to avoid conflict and allow evolution. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
