ACS is mandatory so it can’t be ignored if UDP options are implemented. If it is used with FRA+LITE, the payload would be ignored by legacy receivers and would have to be accepted by option-aware receivers.

> That issue is handled in the -08 draft by making it mandatory to recognize and implement -- a point with which I disagree, as I think it should be optional to implement. But even if I don't get my way on that, the point still remains that we can't retroactively make FUTURE options such as ACS mandatory to implement.

Such as. That seems to be the mantra.

I’ve asked for a specific example of something the draft doesn’t already cover. Still waiting.
