Hi Jingrong & document authors,

I would like for now to leave aside the issue of whether or not application/VPN 
specifics should be outside the scope of this SPRING document (I will however 
be revisiting this point in subsequent emails) and focus on bringing closure to 
the technical comments detailed in 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/_1sSZCfCZWlHwXvYpfOtDZZ9M3g/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmailarchive.ietf.org%2Farch%2Fmsg%2Fspring%2F_1sSZCfCZWlHwXvYpfOtDZZ9M3g%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cjames.n.guichard%40futurewei.com%7C59bc7fddac014518488008db0b76fb95%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C0%7C638116377898936638%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=0fgFYpM5Wp6C0oYLCbyj7jNiHSnGDjFTg8RzkFnQ8Mw%3D&reserved=0>.

As I read through your comments Jingrong I think I can summarize your objection 
to be that you believe the proposal breaks the SRv6 architecture as the 
forwarding relies upon local state rather than state carried within the SRH. Do 
I have that right? If this is the case then you need to be specific in terms of 
which text/sentences in the document are in conflict with which text/sentences 
of existing RFCs. As written I think Rishabh’s forwarding example is accurate 
as he describes a lookup on the Replication SID and the action is to either 
update the outer IPv6 address with the downstream nodes address, or 
re-encapsulate the packet with a new IPv6 header and SRH. I might draw your 
attention to  
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8754.html#name-fib-entry-is-a-locally-inst 
which talks about the definition of future SIDs and their behaviors.

Further your comments appear to me to suggest that the VPN identification 
encapsulated at PE1 acts like a normal VPN SID in the sense that forwarding is 
based upon that IPv6 address. I don’t think that is the intent here; I think 
the SID is used as an identifier for the VPN itself so that the downstream 
nodes are given the correct VPN forwarding context i.e. they are not supposed 
to use that SID to forward the packets back to PE1. Perhaps the authors could 
clarify this point further?

Hi Rishabh, it would be helpful if you could review the comments in 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/_1sSZCfCZWlHwXvYpfOtDZZ9M3g/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmailarchive.ietf.org%2Farch%2Fmsg%2Fspring%2F_1sSZCfCZWlHwXvYpfOtDZZ9M3g%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cjames.n.guichard%40futurewei.com%7C59bc7fddac014518488008db0b76fb95%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C0%7C638116377898936638%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=0fgFYpM5Wp6C0oYLCbyj7jNiHSnGDjFTg8RzkFnQ8Mw%3D&reserved=0>
 again and perhaps provide more clarity on the expected behavior as there seems 
to be a difference in understanding of the actual operation.

Thanks!

Jim

Hi WG,

I don’t agree with Bruno’s point that “this draft could be better restricted to 
the SR-replication segment itself, leaving any application/VPN specifics 
outside the scope of this SPRING document”.
As I commented in [8] to the same point, the backing solution of this document 
is tightly related the SR-Rep Segment and the VPN identifier.
The SR-Rep Segment provides the semantics/context for the many conflicting 
behaviors ---- the behavior of the {SR-Rep Segment + VPN Segment} together,  
and the behavior of normal SRv6.
If it is claimed that this draft is only about SR-rep segment itself, I don’t 
think it is toward to answer the “breaking SRv6 architecture” question.

For the point that “For the SRv6 dataplane, as the IPv6 destination address is 
modified en route …”
I have some similar comments previously, and I still have more comments on this 
topic but they are queued for the “breaking SRv6 architecture” comment above to 
be solved.

Thanks,
Jingrong

Hi Rishabh, authors

Speaking as an individual contributor.
Following a request, I've done a review of the latest version of the draft.
Please find below some proposed comments.

--
As a general comment, may be this draft could be better restricted to the 
SR-replication segment itself, leaving any application/VPN specifics outside 
the scope of this SPRING document. This may help with the resolution of some 
WGLC comments.

--
Ideally, SR Replication and SRv6 compression would be orthogonal hence SRv6 
compression would not need to be referenced, not to mention recommended 
("SHOULD use a Compressed SID (C-SID) container with Downstream Replication SID 
as the Last uSID"). If you chose to keep recommending or even proposing uSID, 
you would need a normative reference to the SRv6 compression document, which 
may delay the RFC publication of this document. Also, depending on your 
choices, a uSID End.Replicate Endpoint behavior may be needed to be allocated 
by the IANA.

--
In general, there are two replication SIDs/nodes: the one instantiating the 
replication SID and the downstream one.
In order to help the reader, making this explicit in some sentences could be 
useful. e.g.

§2.1 SR-MPLS

OLD: There MAY be SIDs preceding the SR-MPLS Replication SID
NEW: SIDs MAY be added before the downstream SR-MPLS Replication SID

--
For the SRv6 dataplane, as the IPv6 destination address is modified en route, 
there seem to be some impact for the ICMP ping checksum.
cf

Probably, it would be useful to cover this in the document.

Hope this helps.

Hi WG:

Just a quick update on the status of this WGLC. The authors are working on the 
various comments received so far on the list and will also most likely publish 
a new version of the document once all comments have been addressed. For this 
reason the chairs will keep this WGLC open until those actions have taken place 
and commenters have confirmed that their comments have been addressed.

Thanks!
