Yes - any field in ClassPortInfo named Redirect*.  I don't see that it 
needs to be limited to the local subnet.

I don't know that an implementation needs to handle different PKeys or 
GRH fields right away, but I don't believe that general SA redirection 
prohibits this.  (I really only care about the LID at the moment.)
