GSE also provides additional features that increase the protocol flexibility and applicability. Some key GSE functions/characteristics are:
* Support for multi-protocol encapsulation ([[IPv4]], [[IPv6]], [[MPEG]], [[Asynchronous Transfer Mode|ATM]], [[Ethernet]], [[IEEE 802.1Q|802.1pQ]] [[VLAN]]s, etc.)
* Transparency to network layer functions, including [[Internet Protocol|IP]] [[encryption]] and IP [[Van Jacobson TCP/IP Header Compression|header compression]].
* Support of several addressing modes. In addition to the 6-byte [[MAC]] address (including [[multicast]] and [[unicast]]), it supports a MAC address-less mode, and an optional 3-byte address mode.
