Hi Joel,
The receiver in this case is an SR segment endpoint node processing an IPv6
packet that matches a FIB entry locally instantiated as a SID of this
document. Therefore, the expected behavior of the receiver is that
described in Sec. 4.
Thanks,
Francois

Hello,
I am interested in doing the review for draft-ietf-spring-srv6-srh-compression
as well, and I qualify according to the criteria you get.
Best regards,
Antoine

Can you explain then what the text is section 10.1 is talking about? It
seems like it is mandating certain bits being 0 for it to be considered
a match? (I will also have to find out more about why the tests showed
certain routers dropping such packets.)
Yours,
Joel

Hi Joel,
Sec. 10.1 specifies how the SR source node should send the ICMP packet so
that it is correctly processed by the receiver. I.e., if the source sends
an ICMP packet to a SID with a non-zero argument, then they may not get a
reply back, as you have observed in your tests.
Thanks,
Francois
Why is it unspecified what the behavior is if the arg bits are
non-zero. Leaving things unspecified (and getting different behaviors
from different implementations) makes things more complex if we need to
build on this behavior.
Yours,
Joel

Hi Joel,
This behavior is not unspecified. It is specified in Sec. 4 of the draft
(as mentioned in my first email). Given the same packet and the same router
configuration, the behavior should be the same with all implementations.
Thanks,
Francois
