Sander, can you describe your use case. So far the only thing that people has asked CRH to do is steering and as mentioned we have solutions for those. If there are others, please share them.. On 28/05/2020, 16:58, "Sander Steffann" wrote: Hi Robert, > There can be a lot of acronymou

Sorry Typo 20 bit label not 2 byte label. SR-MPLS still has the concept of FEC label binding but now just uses a different range of 20 bit labels 16k-24k so is not overlapping with MPLS LDP default label range. Kind Regards Gyan On Thu, May 28, 2020 at 12:27 PM Gyan Mishra wrote: > > Robert >

Robert SR-MPLS is not using MPLS “LDPv4” but is still using the MPLS data plane “layer 2 1/2” 4 byte shim now a much larger label stack subject to MSD (Maximum SID Depth) issues with long static lsp SR-TE paths. SR-MPLS still has the concept of FEC label binding but now just uses a different ran

Ketan, Neither of these forwarding methods are unique to SR. In Section 3.1 of RFC 791, you will see that IPv4 had a Strict Source Route Option and a Loose Source Route Option. These predate SR by roughly twenty-five years.

Hi, All fine and your use case is valid. I never said it is not. * But first it makes all those claims that solutions under discussion are not to be used in Internet moot. * Second you can use subset of SRH just fitted to your need end to end without any encapsulation * Last if I were you I wou

Hi Ron, After reading through many mails related to CRH in list, I found all CRH-SIDs (allocated to prefix-sid and Adj-sid) are of local significance in fact, its operation actually is not same as MPLS Label nor SR-MPLS label (such as domain-wide prefix SID/label), all CRH-SIDs are locally all

Fred and others, I think there is some confusion here among many people. SR-MPLS is not LDP MPLS ... even though both can be used for transport. Nearly 25 years after introduction of tag switching people are highly confused what MPLS is. Most do not even understand that service MPLS and transpor

Let me quote Brian on this – because I think he said it better and more succinctly than I could in my own words. The use case is: some operators want this. That has been enough for the IETF since 1986 (and is of course much more important than vendor preferences). Thanks Andrew From: spring

Hi Ron, Some of the operators may not care about the SR name, but it is clear to me that the proposal in the CRH draft is a subset of Segment Routing (i.e. a reduced portion of Spring Architecture) that only supports prefix and adjacency SIDs as indicated by the two "forwarding methods". h
