Re: [MEXT] TLV header in DSMIP



Well, I have volunteered and indicated that Wassim will probably help,
but have not asked him yet :-)
Note that I am not convinced that diagrams are really appropriate for
the packet descriptions...I will have to look at that. In any case the
idea is to provide clear description of packet headers before and
after IPSEC processing in various cases.

George
