Abstract:
   Some Internet Service Providers and enterprises desire to be aware of
   more information about each packet, so that packets can be treated
   differently and efficiently. Packet-level differentiating can also
   enable flow-level and user-level differentiating.

   IPv6, with a large address space, allows semantics to be embedded
   into addresses. Routers can easily apply relevant operations
   accordingly.

   This document describes a framework that embeds semantics into IPv6
   prefixes, so that network devices can treat packets based on these
   explicit semantics. This document also analyzes on the technical gaps
   for embedding complex semantics.

   This informational document only discusses usage of semantics in a
   Semantic Prefix Domain. It does NOT intent or suggest to standardize
   any common global semantics.
