> Attached please find a new draft that proposes a
> "Subnetwork Encapsulation and Adaptation Layer (SEAL)".
> This work goes a step beyond the sprite-mtu proposal, and
> addresses the tunnel MTU determination and duplicate packet
> detection problem spaces such as required for LISP, MANET,
> etc. But, it also draws on some profound concepts that
> were first proposed by others many years ago. (Please see
> Appendix A for an historical account and correct anything

> From a bigger picture, the proposal provides a generalized
> abstraction for the carriage of IP over any subnetwork that
> connects routers, e.g., Mobile Ad-hoc Networks, enterprise
> networks, the interdomain routing core, etc. The proposal
> is particularly applicable for subnetworks that include
> links with diverse MTUs and L2 address formats, as well
> as for subnetworks that may incur packet duplication due
> to temporal routing loops, flooding, etc.
