Hi PCE WG,

A new version has been submitted as per 
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-pce-sr-path-segment-11.txt. 

But in case of supporting multiple segment lists in a candidate path, it is 
required to add Path Segment TLV into Path Attributes Object as different path 
segment may identify different segment list . And in order to make it backward 
compatible to current implementation, it needs to allow carrying the TLV in 
both LSP and PATH-ATTRIB object. So I suggest to add a new section to describe 
this part of extension as following shown.


4.5.  Path Attributes Object

   The Path Attributes (PATH-ATTRIB) Object is used to carry per-path
   information and to act as a separator between several ERO/RRO objects
   as per [I-D.ietf-pce-multipath].

   As per [RFC9545], a Path Segment can be used to uniquely identify a
   segment list or multiple segment lists in a candidate path or an SR
   policy.  When a set of path segments are used to identify multiple
   segment lists, the Path Segment TLV as described in the
   Section 4.2.1, MUST be carried in the PATH-ATTRIB Object to indicate
   the per-SR-path information regarding the Path Segment identifier.
   The P flag in LSP Object is used to indicate that the allocation of
   all path segments need to be done by the PCE.  When one single path
   segment is used to identify all segment lists, the Path Segment TLV
   MAY be carried in the LSP Object or PATH-ATTRIB Object.  But the Path
   Segment TLV MUST be ignored in the LSP Object when it is also
   included in the PATH-ATTRIB Object.

What is your thoughts? Any comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

Best Regards,
Quan
