This document describes a tunnel encapsulation for Ethernet over IPv6
with a mandatory 64-bit cookie for connecting Layer 2 (L2) Ethernet
attachment circuits identified by IPv6 addresses. The encapsulation
is based on the Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol Version 3 (L2TPv3) over IP
and does not use the L2TPv3 control plane.
This document is a product of the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
