Re: FW: I-D Action: draft-ietf-6man-ipv6-alt-mark-07.txt

Giuseppe,

I think in S2.1 "MUST NOT" be used outside a "controlled domain" is perhaps
a bit too strong.  Similarly in S6, "MUST be applied in...controlled
domains" might be moderated down to "SHOULD only be applied...".

I'll note that it is possible for an AH option to be used to ensure the
DstOpt variant is unmodified en route, and these two in conjunction can be
used wherever desired to send such packets outside the given domain
(subject, of course, to all the middlebox interference any such
packet would inevitably receive -- but that's a separate issue).
