I think your assumption is broken. But you have an alternative method and that 
is using TTL expiry.

This draft actually proposes a mechanism where the intermediates are required 
to recognize the vxlan oam packets. If this assumption is broken, the solutions 
proposed in this draft may not be effective.

Hi,

This draft needs to address how intermediate L3 routers are going to see these 
VXLAN OAM packets, since L3 routers just do L3 routing and don’t look at the 
payload to see it is VXLAN and then see that these are PD OAM packets. The only 
option I can think of is TTL expiry, otherwise it won’t work, the way it is 
defined now,

Thx
Shahram
