[Detnet] A question on draft-ietf-detnet-ip

[Greg Mirsky <[e-mail]>]

Dear Authors, et al.,
apologies for the belated question and I greatly appreciate your
consideration and clarification. The last paragraph in Section 4.1 notes:
   In order to maximize reuse of 5-tuple based mechanisms, e.g,
   traceroute, DetNet-aware applications and end systems SHOULD NOT mix
   DetNet and non-DetNet traffic within a single 5-tuple.
Could you help me understand the reference to the traceroute in the text
above? If the reference is to ICMP traceroute, then, I'll note, it is using
the ICMP protocol, not UDP or TCP. And, as I understand DetNet in IP, a
DetNet IP flow is not envisioned to be using ICMP. Perhaps the intention
was to point to the use of 5-tuple based load balancing in the ECMP
environment?

Regards,
Greg
