Hi Loa,
another tunnel with the Path segment from node C is, in my view, very close to SPME tunnel. The Path segment from C is needed because Path segment from D is not known to the node C, cannot be associated with the right SR-tunnel segment, i.e., tunnel B-C. The fate sharing may be achieved by using exactly the same SIDs as in the A-D tunnel for the B-C segment. And GAL is still BoS on B-C tunnel. Are we getting closer?

Not sure, you lose me somewhere between the "B", "C", "D", "from" and
"another".

So let me check I was talking about

So the stack transporting payload from B-C looks like this:

                    +------------+
                    ~B->C SubPath~
                    +------------+
                    |s-PSID(B->C)|
                    +------------+
                    | BSID(C->D) |
                    +------------+
                    |e-PSID(A->D)|
                    +------------+
                       figure 1

The "~" at the top means that there might be more than one label that
can be popped or swapped, right?

So the stack transporting GACh from B-C looks like this:

                    +--------------+
                    ~ B->C SubPath ~
                    +--------------+
                    |     GAL      |
                    +--------------+
                    |  GACh info-1 |
                    +--------------+
                    |  GACh info-2 |
                    +--------------+
                       figure 2

Now my question is the "B->C SubPath" in the first figure identical
to the "B->C SubPath" in the second figure?
Now

    Greg,

    We are close, though I hope the rules are that GAL is bottom of stack,
    and that a packet with a GACh does not carry user payload.

    I should have said that "if you want a GACg for the

    I don't understand why we need a "new" SR tunnel, the GAL/GACh can
    ride with the GAL as bottom of stack with the label stack for
    Sub-path(B->C), right? If you put it on "another" tunnel, how do
    you guarantee fate sharing?
