There is a typo in the below which if not understood as a typo would be quite confusing. I wrote that I raised the issue with "with the Internet ADs and SPRING chairs". That should have read "with the Internet ADs and 6man chairs". The SPRING co-chairs are recused, and the charter requirement l

Hi Joel , all, C-SID is no more than another mechanism that relies on some algorithmic mapping embedded in the IPv6 address. We do have already many of such algorithmic approaches: RFC6052, RFC7597, etc. The internal structure would be problematic if it requires that every intermediate node

Hi Brian, I've got some questions about what you've said: For that reason, the fact that the bottom 64 bits in the "address" look funny or change is simply irrelevant. They are invisible to routing (which is done based on the prefix) and invisible to neighbor discovery (because it never happens).

Hi Darren What Greg is asking is if the SID is a prefix SID End and not adjacency SID End.x, so now the common prefix is needed to ECMP steer the flow to the prefix SID which uses the common prefix, which may in this case be mutated due to shifting of SIDs in GSID container. Kind Regards Gyan

Hi Greg. You ask “Is 64-bits routable prefix in the DA an implicit prerequisite of the C-SID solution?” The answer is no. In the rest of your query i think you are asking how IPv6 packet forwarding works (I.e, based on prefix). Recall the compressed SIDs in the draft are SRv6 SID with a locat
