Even if we treat encapsulation in new IPv6 header as only an option ?

There are two options listed in the draft with the “either” clause quoted 
below. Both of them are compliant. In fact, in my not so careful reading, I do 
not see any text in draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-06 
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-06> that 
would be contrary to this text in RFC2460bis.

Thanks
Suresh

P.S.: I am assuming you are using the word option to mean a choice and not an 
IPv6 option. If not, please clarify.


Thx
R.

Hi Suresh,

As you requested one of many quotes from the draft which your clarification 
to 2460bis directly contradicts with:

This include either:

      A host originating an IPv6 packet.

      An SR domain ingress router encapsulating a received IPv6 packet
      into an outer IPv6 header followed by an SRH.

Excellent. Thanks for pointing out the exact text. I can confirm that this 
text  *is compliant* with the RFC2460bis text.

Thanks
Suresh
