Abstract:
This document describes a method for encapsulating the layer
protocols within UDP at an IP network edge such that the payload
protocol can be identified from the destination port value. The
mechanism also allows for the source port to be used as the entropy
field for the purpose of load balancing in environments such as
Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) in the underlying IP network.
Application of this technique is focused on tunneling payload
network flows across IP networks in environments where load-
balancing is required. No changes to the underlying IP network or
the payload networks are required.
