Stephane,

IP addresses are not used in path computation. Those are just leaves. You
can easily compute topology by just using nodes and links without IP
addresses. SIDs should have semantics similar to IP address but presence of
one should not mandate or be in any way tight to the other.

Cheers,
R.
