Nick & Sander,

Just for my own understanding here.

A)  Are you asking to add new TLV to IPv6 SRH say called "C-SID Length"
(and make SRH mandatory if used with C-SIDs) which would define the C-SID
length ?

or

B) Are you asking to define a completely new data plane for IP networks ?
By new data plane I mean either the format of IP header in the packets.

or

C) What else are you suggesting ?

- -

If this is (A)  I think it could be considered. SRH already supports TLVs.
That way even wireshark could read and parse C-SIDs correctly (if this is
of any value when detached from rest of control plane).

Thx,
Robert.
