The Hop-by-Hop option header is a type of IPv6 extension header that has
been defined in the IPv6 protocol specification. The contents of this

datagram.This draft highlights the characteristics of this extension header
which make it prone to Denial of Service attacks and proposes an
arrangement of options to minimize such attacks.
