Section 6.4 says:
When the Opt Data Len is greater than that required for the fixed portion of the Route Error plus the necessary Type-Specific Information as indicated by the Option Type value in the option, the remaining octets are interpreted as extensions.
It should say:
When the Opt Data Len is greater than that required for the fixed portion of the Route Error plus the necessary Type-Specific Information as indicated by the Error Type value in the option, the remaining octets are interpreted as extensions.
Notes:
As can be seen from the context, the "Type-Specific Information" is
dependent on the "Error Type" field value, not the "Option Type"
field value.
