Hi Ketan,
Sorry, my description in my last email was not accurate enough.
Please let me sort out the comments:
In section 3.2.1 in RFC9252, it says that the transposition length can be 20
(due to the MPLS label field size).
From the description of section 4 in RFC9252,
"for the EVPN Ethernet Auto-Discovery (A-D)
per Ethernet Segment (ES) route described further in Section 6.1.1,
only the Argument of the SID needs to be signaled. This Argument
part of the SRv6 SID MAY be transposed in the Ethernet Segment
Identifier (ESI) Label field of the ESI Label extended community, and
the SID value in the SRv6 Services TLV is set to 0 along with the
inclusion of the SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV. "
My understanding is that only Argument is signaled for ES filtering.
In section 3.1 in draft-ietf-bess-bgp-srv6-args, it says:
“Additionally, as a
non-zero ARG value is being signaled, the Argument Length (AL) MUST
be set to the size of the ARG, and the size SHOULD be a multiple of
8.”
In my understanding the entire 24 bits (not 20 bits) label size advertised in
type 1 and 3 should be used for the transposition scheme. In this case, the
transposition length may be set to 24 only.
As draft-ietf-bess-bgp-srv6-args says, the functions defined in this draft also
apply to the transposition scheme.
So according to the above description, the TPOS-L is 24 only in this case.
Best regards,
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
I am still unable to understand your point. Is it possible for you to please
explain with an example?
Thanks,
Ketan

Hi Ketan,
Thank you for the coming update!
For the second comment, from section 6.1.1 of RFC9252,
‘When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less
than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the AL.’
If I understand right, the sentence means that the Transposition length can be
24 or less.
I am wondering the verification should be yes or no when the transportation
length isn’t the same but the label value is.
So IMO it may be simpler to limit the transportation length to 24 bits.
Best regards,
Sandy

Hello,
I have been selected as the Routing Directorate reviewer for this draft.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-bgp-srv6-args/
Document: draft-ietf-bess-bgp-srv6-args-05
Reviewer: Zheng (Sandy) Zhang
Review Date: Feb 27th, 2025
Intended Status: Standards Track
Summary:
This draft is well written and clear.
No issues found. This document is ready for publication.
Major issues: None.
Nits: None.
Comments:
The functionality defined in this document also applies to the transposition
scheme defined in RFC9252. It might be better to add a reference to RFC9252
Section 4 in the last paragraph of the first section.
KT> We also got the very same feedback from the Genart review
(https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/bess/l1I-NBJB3XzRe8Z0HLuQWpR7nzY/) and
we'll add that in the next update.
Since this draft applies
to route types 1 and 3, and the associated label is 3 octets, it is appropriate
to only apply 24 bits here to the transposition scheme. So it would be best to
add a sentence or two to the above.
KT> This is already covered by RFC9252 - e.g.,
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9252.html#section-6.1.1 ... do let me know if
I am missing something.
Thanks,
Ketan
