[RFC5237][RFC7045]
Note
In the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) [RFC791] there is a field
called "Protocol" to identify the next level protocol.  This is an 8
bit field.  In Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) [RFC8200], this field 
is called the "Next Header" field.
    
Note
Values that are also IPv6 Extension Header Types should be listed in the 
IPv6 Extension Header Types registry at [IANA registry ipv6-parameters].
