In IPv6, optional internet-layer information is encoded in separate
headers that may be placed between the IPv6 header and the transport
layer header. There are a small number of such extension headers
currently defined. This document describes the issues that can arise
when defining new extension headers and discusses the alternative
extension mechanisms in IPv6. It also provides a format for defining
new IPv6 extension headers that would allow implementations to
process past unknown extension headers.
