Hello,

I am working on a spec for generic tunneling of any protocol over UDP, including
MPLS, GRE, IPsec, etc. The spec is called "AERO", and it includes:

  - an encapsulation format
  - a fragmentation and reassembly capability for MTU mitigation
  - a virtual link model
  - a control messaging mechanism
  - a routing and addressing system based on BGP

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-templin-aerolink/

I understand that there have been discussions regarding protocol-specific
GRE and MPLS encapsulations within UDP, but I would like to offer up AERO
as a protocol-independent way of accommodating UDP encapsulations. I
also believe the routing system and other aspects of AERO should be of
interest to the routing area.

This work is derived from an earlier experimental RFC (RFC6706) which was
originally briefed to the routing area several years ago and published as an
AD-sponsored Individual Submission RFC. The current document can be
considered as a second edition of AERO, and the goal is to advance it to
standards track. Please send any comments or questions to the list.

Thanks - Fred
