If they want to specify in the draft that the CPE are operator managed by a single operator, and that they use secure tunnels (not just arbitrary overlay) between the BRAS then we can as a WG see if that suffices.  But the draft doesn't currently say that.

Yours,

Joel

Joel,

Limited domain (if you will) can be also build in the overlay - unless you point me to any standards track RFC which says otherwise. If I connect over ISP with v6 I can run my own limited domain over such ISP between hosts in my sites.

Of course ISP may recognize that I am actually sending v6 packets with extension headers and drop those ... but this is not a concern for this thread nor for IETF. In such a case I will would switch an ISP :)

Cheers,
R.

    The host case for SRv6 is for hosts run by the operator within
    their domain.  8986 explicitly requires that SRv6 be used only
    within a limited domain.

    It is clear from other comments that you do not like this
    restriction.  That is your priviledge as an individual. But IETF
    work has to respect the restriction.

    Joel,

    *Point 1: *

    Reading RFC8986 I see in section 4.16.2 clear definition of SRv6
    running on user hosts.

    /One of the applications of the USP flavor is when a packet with
    an SRH is destined to an /
    /application on hosts with smartNICs ("Smart Network Interface
    Cards") implementing /
    /SRv6. The USP flavor is used to remove the consumed SRH from the
    extension header /
    /chain before sending the packet to the host.
    /
    *Point 2: *
    *
    *
    If two hosts want for whatever reason to use SRv6 over the
    provider's IPv6 underlay (and they may possibly benefit from DHCP
    allocation of locators) they can happily do so and I see nowhere
    in any SRv6 spec any mandate which would state a word against
    such deployment model.

    Thx,
    Robert

    PS, This entire notion of "limited domain" is as you very well
    know the history is not a very technical thing ...

        Speaking as an individual participant, it seems to me that
        the description of using CPE as SRv6 endpoints needs to state
        explicitly and clearly that this assumes that the CPE are
        managed by the access operator, and that all of the relevant
        endpoints are part of a single operator / domain. Otherwise,
        this usage violates the base rules for SRv6.

        Personally, I would like to see this fixed before adoption
        completes.

        I probably need to re-read the draft.  Does the draft assume
        the CPE is part of the operator domain?  Remember that SRv6
        MUST be used ONLY within a limited domain?

        Hi Aijun,
        Thank you very much for your comments.
        We will add some text to describe that the CPE utilizes
        locators obtained through DHCP to provide differentiated
        services.

            It will be more convincible to add some descriptions in
            the document that the CPE itself needs to obtain
            different IPv6 address that can differentiate the
            services that it can provide.

            主题: [spring] spring WG Adoption Call for
            draft-cheng-dhc-distribute-srv6-locator-by-dhcp
            Dear WG:
            This message starts a two-week adoption call for
            draft-cheng-dhc-distribute-srv6-locator-by-dhcp, ending
            on July/19.
            It "describes the method of assigning locators to SRv6
            Endpoints through DHCPv6".
            
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-cheng-spring-distribute-srv6-locator-by-dhcp/
            Please review the draft and consider whether you
            support its adoption by the WG.  Please share any
            thoughts with the list to indicate support or
            opposition -- this is not a vote.
            If you are willing to provide a more in-depth review,
            please state it explicitly to give the chairs an
            indication of the energy level in the working group
            willing to work on the document.
            WG adoption is the start of the process.  The
            fundamental question is whether you agree the proposal
            is worth the WG's time to work on and whether this
            draft represents a good starting point. The chairs are
            particularly interested in hearing the opinion of
            people who are not authors of the document.
            Thanks!
            Alvaro (for the Chairs)
