Abstract

This proposal describes a new option to achieve a mechanism which alerts NVGRE egress End Point to more closely examine the contents of the packet encapsulated under NVGRE header. This option is useful for case(s) where a given frame encapsulated within a given NVGRE segment responsible for carrying data between two different End Systems contains some control information (e.g OAM information) that may require special handling/processing at NVGRE egress End Point.
