Hi Haoyu,


> Please take a look at our EH draft if you haven’t yet. The mechanism is there and the essence is that it doesn’t tamper the MPLS label stack and label semantics. That’s why I say PSD is least intrusive.


Thank you, I was unaware of it and have now looked at it.  If I understand it correctly, the EHI is the trigger to look for extension headers, all of which are in PSD.  Again, the parsing performance is a linear read to find the bottom of stack.

While it may be minimally intrusive to the label stack semantics, that doesn’t seem like a good trade-off for the performance penalty.

On a separate point, I have deep concerns about the encoding efficiency of the extension headers.  We can talk about this if and when it becomes relevant.

Tony
