Title : Survey of proposed use cases for the IPv6 flow label
Author(s) : Q. Hu, B. Carpenter
Filename : draft-hu-flow-label-cases-03.txt
Pages : 19
Date : 2011-02-22
The IPv6 protocol includes a flow label in every packet header, but
this field is not used in practice. This paper describes the flow
label standard and discusses the implementation issues that it
raises. It then describes various published proposals for using the
flow label, and shows that most of them are inconsistent with the
standard. Methods to address this problem are briefly reviewed. We
also question whether the standard should be revised.
