Hello Ketan,

Thank you for your response.

For question No. 1, I can understand Type E and Type G can be used to present 
layer 2 interface. Howerver, the method introduced in RFC 8668 is different, in 
which SID is used to directly indicate the member link of a layer 2 link 
bundle. When using the segment defined in RFC8668, the headend doesn't need to 
resolve the IP address and the interface ID specified in Type E or G.
[KT] The Type A is available for all types of SR-MPLS Segments to be specified 
in the form of a label (and it does not require headend to perform any 
resolution) – same is also usable for L2 Bundle Member Adj-SID. The Type E or G 
is for when this SID is to be represented as Node Segment + Link ID for the 
headend to resolve to the L2 Bundle Member Adj-SID.

Thanks,
Ketan

So I think it is better to add one more segment type to contain the segment 
defined in RFC8668 for layer 2 bundle members.


Best Regards,
Zhenqiang Li

Subject: Comments on SR policy

Dear authors and all,

Please consider the following comments.
1. Do you think it is ok to add one more segment type for the segment list to 
incorporate the segment for Layer 2 bundle members? Please refer to rfc8668.
[KT] The Segment Type E covers Layer 2 Bundle Members : 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-spring-segment-routing-policy-08#section-4

         This type can also be
         used to indicate indirection into a layer 2 interface (i.e.
         without IP address) like a representation of an optical
         transport path or a layer 2 Ethernet port or circuit at the
         specified node.


2. For per flow steering to a policy, why do we limit the array index to 0 to 
7?  I think this is implementation specific and the number of paths in an array 
depends on the application scenario. I am not sure whether or not 8 paths is 
enough for all scenarios.

[KT] The draft does not limit the Forwarding Classes to 8. The value 8 is more 
of an example and comes from Traffic Class [RFC5462] and the IP Precedence 
portion of DSCP [RFC2474]. The section starts with “Let us assume” and there is 
also the following text in the same section:



   The array index values (e.g. 0, 1 and 2) and the notion of

   forwarding-class are implementation specific and only meant to

   describe the desired behavior.  The same can be realized by other

   mechanisms.



3. For protection in section 9.1, it is better to add some text like "the local 
protection may not satisfy the SLA requirements or the path constrains for the 
policy" when an SR Policy is built on the basis of TI-LFA protected IGP 
segments.
[KT] Sure. We can add this clarification in the next update.

Thanks,
Ketan

Best Regards,
Zhenqiang Li
