Hi Fernando,

I have very basic question to close this debate.

Is IP encapsulation of the packet allowed by IPv6 specs or not ?

If it is I see no issue with any documents you quote since when I add a new
IPv6 header I can add any field to it. Moreover when I see myself as
destination address of the packet RFC8200 verbatim allows to add, delete or
modify EHs. I hope you agree with it.

If IP encapsulation is forbidden by IPv6 RFCs please provide a quote and
ref.

Many thx,
R.
