Abstract:
This document analyzes a problem in the Uniform Format for IPv6
Extension Headers specified in RFC 6564, which results in nodes not
being able to process an IPv6 Header Chain if it contains an
unrecognized IPv6 Extension Header that follows the aforementioned
Uniform Format. It analyzes the implications of the aforementioned
problem, and discusses a number of possible solutions, including the
specification of a new IPv6 Extension Header - the Universal
Extension Header - that overcomes the aforementioned issues.
