Re: [Idr] 6PE-Alt draft

Hi Robert/ Martin,

I thought over the load balancing case, which seems to be the only
advantage(it is anyway not guaranteed - but best effort) of the 6PE.

Another way to just get the behavior with 6PE of getting different
hashes for a label stack for same tunnel label is to use the label
stack more affectively.

So we can have a label stack which could have either Explicit NULL
IPv6 label, or a combination of Explicit NULL IPv6 label and Explicit
NULL IPv4 label, with the bottom of stack being the Explicit NULL IPv6
label.

Thanks,
Vishwas
