> The IP Router Alert Option is an IP option that alerts transit
> routers to more closely examine the contents of an IP packet.  RSVP,
> PGM, IGMP/MLD, MRD and GIST are some of the protocols that make use
> of the IP Router Alert option.  This document discusses security
> aspects and usage guidelines around the use of the current IP Router
> Alert option.  Specifically, it provides recommendation against using
> the Router Alert in the end-to-end open Internet as well as identify
> controlled environments where protocols depending on Router Alert can
> be used safely.  It also provides recommendation about protection
> approaches for Service Providers.  Finally it provides brief
> guidelines for Router Alert implementation on routers.
