Hi Les,

> ​
This makes no sense to me operationally or architecturally.

Fundamentally I fully agree with you.


However architecturally:

However at least looking at group of folks who claim that it is impossible to 
get same SRGB block in *any* network between two or more vendors  I think 
Stephane's intention would be to at least get it per one protocol even if 
platform wide the intersecting pool may be mission impossible.

[Les:] This is an unrelated issue. Placing SRGB in global context does not mean 
all routers have to have the same SRGB. There is no controversy here.


and now operationally:

Another reason would be idea of dual overlapping SRGBs perhaps quite useful 
during migrations between protocols where the exact same SRGB is set on both 
then just based on admin distance one vs the other protocol is chosen. While a 
standard practice in protocol migrations not sure if anyone looked at that from 
SR perspective.
[Les:] Not sure what you are trying to say. If the two SRGBs are the same – why 
do we need to configure them per protocol?
If the two SRGBs are not the same, other routers in the network have  no idea 
which protocol is going to win on your box. So your neighbor has no idea 
whether it should use the SRGB advertised by OSPF or the SRGB advertised by 
IS-IS.

[Shraddha] route preference is local to router and the neighbor never knows 
what the other is going to choose.  If there are inconsistencies in two 
protocols, there are going to be loops even when they use same SRGB. Keeping 
different labels makes it easier to troubleshoot.

Cheers,
R.

Stephane –

What is the requirement to have a per-protocol SRGB config?

(I am not talking about what may or may not have been implemented by vendors – 
the YANG model should be architecturally correct)
