Happy New Year 6man! I've posted a new version of the draft for removing HBH and Routing Headers, This is mostly a refresh of previous versions with some cleanup in the procedures section as well as updates to RFC8200. Any comments are appreciated. Thanks, Tom ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <internet-drafts@ietf.org> Date: Thu, Jan 1, 2026 at 11:24 AM Subject: New Version Notification for draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal-06.txt To: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> A new version of Internet-Draft draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal-06.txt has been successfully submitted by Tom Herbert and posted to the IETF repository. Name: draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal Revision: 06 Title: Infight Removal of IPv6 Hop-by-Hop and Routing Headers Date: 2026-01-01 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 24 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal-06.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal/ HTMLized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal Diff: https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-herbert-eh-inflight-removal-06 Abstract: This document specifies a method to allow intermediate nodes to remove IPv6 Hop-by-Hop Options headers and Routing headers from packets inflight. The goal is to reduce the probability of packets being dropped because they contain these extension headers without impacting functionality. An additional goal is to limit visibility of information in extension headers to those nodes that need to process the headers. The IETF Secretariat
