Folks,

The IETF has just published RFC7739, which discusses the
security implications of predictable IPv6 Fragment IDs, and proposes a
number of possible algorithms to generate Frag IDs such that the
aforementioned issues are mitigated.

* RFC7739: <https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc7739.txt>

* More info about this RFC and related work can be found here:

Thanks,
