Both stateful and stateless methods of assigning a value could be used, but it is outside the scope of this specification to mandate an algorithm. The algorithm SHOULD ensure that the resulting flow label values are unique with high probability." > 2) whether ECMP devices > must/should/may use non-zero flow labels as input to their hash, or 3) > if hosts use the flow label for EMCP must/should/may they parse any > deeper to extract additional L4 entropy.
