Yes, I think it would be good to have such a reliable ADD_ADDR2 exchange. > This would work for the ADD_ADDR2 option that does not contain any address > and has thus a total length of 32 bits. Concerning the address-ID of the initial subflow, I am not sure whether it is worth it to replace the complexity in the implementations of handling the implicit zero address-ID, with a reliable empty ADD_ADDR-exchange (which will also add complexity of its own). If we could add the address-ID in the MP_CAPABLE it would be great (as this will simplify a lot), but I understand that we do not want to lose the entropy of the 64 bits. In general, if the MP_CAPABLE could transport all the information that is relevant for this subflow (address-ID and backup-bit), would be great. Because, as of today, if a stack sends a SYN+MP_CAPABLE on a subflow that is actually meant to operate as a "backup" subflow (as soon as another subflow with higher priority can be established), a stack has to send an MP_PRIO immediately after the 3-way handshake. The reliability of the MP_CAPABLE in the SYN could actually get exploited to send such information immediately (as is already done in the MP_JOIN). Considering that the keys are already sent in plaintext, maybe the loss of entropy is not such a big deal? Cheers, Christoph
