A new version of I-D, draft-li-6man-app-aware-ipv6-network-00.txt
has been successfully submitted by Shuping Peng and posted to the IETF repository.

Name:		draft-li-6man-app-aware-ipv6-network
Revision:	00
Title:		Application-aware IPv6 Networking
Document date:	2019-07-08

Pages:		14

Abstract:
   A multitude of applications are carried over the network, which have
   varying needs for network bandwidth, latency, jitter, and packet
   loss, etc.  Some applications such as online gaming and live video
   streaming have very demanding network requirements thereof require
   special treatments in the network.  However, in current networks, the
   network and applications are decoupled, that is, the network is not
   aware of the applications' requirements in a finer granularity.
   Therefore, it is difficult to provide truly fine-granular traffic
   operations for the applications and guarantee their SLA requirements.

   This document proposes a new framework, named Application-aware IPv6
   Networking, and also the solution to guarantee SLA for applications,
   which makes use of IPv6 extensions header in order to convey the
   application related information including its requirements along with
   the packet to the network so to facilitate the service deployment and
   network resources adjustment.  Then, it defines the application-aware
   options which can be used in the different IPv6 extension headers for
   the purpose.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
