RoE header and mapper thoughts: EtherType



Folks,

Some initial thoughts on reserving EtherType.. this is not topical yet, though. My initial thinking was to have a single new EtherType for everything RoE. However, recently I was thinking whether it would make any sense to have two EtherTypes: one for time critical packets (like AxC flows) and another for less critical packets (like C&M flows etc).

Opinions?
