Hello, I have a few questions for the authors of this draft and some discussion points for the WG.
1. What is precisely the definition of this "path MTU" for an SR Policy? I am guessing that it includes all the labels/SIDs that are used for the SR path? 2. While https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3209#section-2.6 defines "path MTU" for RSVP-TE LSPs, it does describe the procedures for the same for handling IP packets/payloads on the headend. It does not cover the scenarios where the incoming packets may be themselves labelled. 3. Shouldn't the concept of "path MTU" for SR Policies and its' applicability and operations be first defined in a (Spring WG?) document before we introduce its signalling aspects in protocols like BGP? Note that such a document would bring in requirements and guidelines for how the value is going to be computed and it's usage for different steering mechanisms over SR Policies. 4. Finally, specific to the proposed encoding here, would this "path MTU" not be more suitable on the CP level since each SL may have different size label stack and different paths and one does not know which SL would be picked for a particular flow? So may be the lowest value computed for all SLs is what gets applied to the packets at the CP (i.e. SR Policy) level?

Any discussion regarding on whether one desires SR Policy should be clearly distinguished from the Technical discussions on the mechanisms to pass SR policy MTU. The questions for the people to discuss on this draft are: 1) Is there a need for this mechanism in networks using MPLS-SR or SR-V6 and SR policy? 2) Are there any error handling issues besides what is being Taken care of in RFC7752bis-03.txt 3) Do you think this draft is ready to be adopted? In this category, please list any concerns you have regarding adoption. This category can include general concerns about BGP-LS, MPLS-SR, SR-V6, and SR-Policy. Cheers, Sue Hares
