[spring] Question on End.DT2U behavior

2022-12-15 Thread Muthu Arul Mozhi Perumal
RFC8986 describes the End.DT2U behavior as "Endpoint with decapsulation and unicast MAC L2 table lookup". However, its definition includes the instruction for forwarding BUM traffic. S01. If (Upper-Layer header type == 143(Ethernet) ) { S02.Remove the outer IPv6 header with all its exten

So, using the new ethertype inside a (closed/open) domain would require all IPv6 routers inside the domain to support SRv6 or at least support the new ethertype to check if any IPv6 packet containing an SRH was received with this ethertype? If an IPv6 router supports neither, then one cannot enable

[spring] Is MSD really a configurable attribute?

2017-04-05 Thread Muthu Arul Mozhi Perumal
draft-ietf-spring-sr-yang seems to describe Maximum SID Depth (MSD) as a read-write attribute that is configurable on the node, but I really wonder how many vendors actually support changing the MSD on a node. Suppose a node is capable of pushing a maximum of K labels in h/w and the node MSD is co
