Re: [MBONED] WGLC for <draft-ietf-mboned-auto-multicast-08.txt> - UDP checksum?

Is this a reasonable solution to the issue?

All this looks fine to me. I assume that the default behaviour in stacks must be to still treat checksum 0 as a genuine checksum. For those applications using some protocol with no integrity check for checksum 0, there needs to be some way for them to signal that to the stack. This could be e.g. setsockopt() option for signalling this per socket.
