[Int-area] Re: [tsvwg] UDP options [was IP Parcels and Advanced Jumbos (AJs)]

Hi, all, I have not investigated this issue. Any new UDP option proposal would need to be evaluated in detail AND would need to follow the design requirements in the UDP options doc. Further, I would urge any option that is per-IP packet to be an IP option; UDP options are intended for user en

For the record, Fred, I do not agree with that. IP Parcels should have a new protocol number (once again, see pont #3 here ). One is needed for safety and correctness, as there is NEVER any guarantee that despite all efforts

These proposed changes to UDP are thoughtprovoking. When UDP-Lite (RFC3828) was proposed, it was eventually shunted to its own IP protocol number, rather than risk messing up existing UDP implementations and semantics for even a very minor change. I gather that move to a different port was done

Lloyd, the parcel/AJ behavior is indicated by a new IPv6 HBH option that must be present, just the same way that the Jumbo Payload HBH option must be present in UDP jumbograms. The presence of the HBH option indicates the arrangement of the multi-segment UDP datagram that follows with no need to
