GIM5>> I believe that a reader experienced in the subject would be able to
properly deduce raw IP encapsulation based on the example displayed in
Figure 2.2 since the IP/UDP encapsulation doesn't use anything
UDP-specific. Perhaps our Shepherd or someone from the group would kindly
share their opinion on whether an additional figure is helpful.
