Hi all, As discussed in the other thread, instead of adding new parameters to the 0-1023 range, we should rather use higher ranges for "non-essential" type of extensions. Currently the text in RFC5201 about the ranges says: Parameters numbered between 0-1023 are used in HIP handshake and update procedures and are covered by signatures. Parameters numbered between 1024-2047 are reserved. Parameters numbered between 2048-4095 are used for parameters related to HIP transform types. Parameters numbered between 4096 and (2^16 - 2^12) 61439 are reserved. The VIA and BONE extensions are not actually "handshake and update procedures", or "essential stuff", but we originally put the signed parameters OVERLAY_ID [1] and ROUTE_DST [2] there since the other possible ranges, according to the text above, were "reserved". However, better approach would be to use a higher range for this kind of extensions. For example, 4096-16383. Latest version of HICCUPS [3] already uses that range and we were planning to move the OVERLAY_ID and ROUTE_DST parameters there too (values 4592 and 4600, respectively), unless someone objects. Cheers, Ari [1] http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hip-bone-07#section-6.1 [2] http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hip-via-03#section-4.1 [3] http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hip-hiccups-05#section-4.1
