For 3GPP lightweight however is demanded.



Lightweight is an undefined term.

As far as I can see, ISATAP adds extra data structures and
extra state machine logic to the basic proto 41 encapsulation/
decapsulation logic that every 3GPP device will need anyway.



Can you be more specific on what you mean by "state logic"? ISATAP just uses route entries in the IPv6 routing table as for any other IPv6 interface.

Well, since there are new data structures defined explicitly in the ISATAP spec, surely there *must* be additional logic to create, process, and delete those data. I'm referring to sections 8.1 and 8.3.1 of draft-ietf-ngtrans-isatap-22.txt.

I'm not trying to set the clock back, but none of that arises
for 6over4 as far as I know.
