Hi Chairs,
I would not consider new flavors to the existing endpoint behaviors as
multiple data planes. At least that's not what I thought of when responding
to the earlier poll. Either way, this I-D is a good base for making
progress. In fact, making sure that the I-D is in WG control is a much
better way to further the discussion. Thus, I support adoption. Thanks to
Joel for posting the summary in 6man as well.
Some suggestions to authors:
- Some sections could use some more explanation and text instead of the
reader guessing why. For example section 6.3
- There is a lot of lower case "recommended" in this I-D. Perhaps, some of
these might be more suitable as RECOMMENDED.
Section 2
o Compressed-SID (C-SID): A C-SID is a short encoding of a SID in
SRv6 packet that does not include the SID block bits (locator
block).
What about the argument? In other places, we say NF is C-SID length (which
does not include argument) and thus I am not sure.
Section 3
These common bits are named Locator-Block in [RFC8986]
I did not find the term "Locator-Block" in RFC 8986. They do use the term
SRv6 SID block though.
Section 10
Illustrations will be provided in a separate document.
An example/illustration is needed to visualize and understand this
document. I urge authors to consider adding it as part of this document
itself, perhaps as an appendix.
Nits
- Expand SRv6, SID, PCE on first use.
Thanks!
Dhruv
