Hi Fred,

Sorry this is a little late, but I wanted to respond to this thread.
Please look at Identifier Locator Addressing
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00). This is along
the lines of using IPv6 without encapsulation for network
virtualization (similar to your idea to use flow label in IPv6 for
tenant ID). In ILA we encode tenant IDs the their address into IPv6
use Identifier/Locator split (borrowing concept from ILNP).

Thanks,
Tom
