Hi all,

I have just submitted a new version of the Simplemux draft.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-saldana-tsvwg-simplemux/

The main improvement is that it now permits the multiplexing of packets of any length.

BR,

Jose

> Abstract:
>    There are some situations in which multiplexing a number of small
>    packets into a bigger one is desirable.  For example, a number of
>    small packets can be sent together between a pair of machines if they
>    share a common network path.  Thus, the traffic profile can be
>    shifted from small to larger packets, reducing the network overhead
>    and the number of packets per second to be managed by intermediate
>    routers.
> 
>    This document describes Simplemux, a protocol able to encapsulate a
>    number of packets belonging to different protocols into a single
>    packet.  It includes the "Protocol" field on each multiplexing
>    header, thus allowing the inclusion of a number of packets belonging
>    to different protocols (multiplexed packets) on a packet of another
>    protocol (tunneling protocol).
> 
>    In order to reduce the overhead, the size of the multiplexing headers
>    is kept very low (it may be a single byte when multiplexing small
>    packets) .
