	Title           : IPv6 UDP Checksum Considerations

This document examines the role of the transport checksum when used
with IPv6, as defined in RFC2460.  It presents a summary of the
trade-offs for evaluating the safety of updating RFC 2460 to permit
an IPv6 UDP endpoint to use a zero value in the checksum field to
indicate that no checksum is present.  The document describes issues
and design principles that need to be considered and provides
recommendations.
