Abstract:
   This memo specifies requirements for IPv6 forwarders as they process
   packets with long header chains.  It also provides guidance for
   application developers whose applications might rely on long headers
   chains.

   As background, this memo explains how many ASIC-based IPv6 forwarders
   process packets and why processing of packets with long header chains
   might be problematic.
