Hi Weiqiang, members of the DT, thank you for volunteering your time and expertise to this important for the further development of the SR project. Please find my notes and questions below:
- my first question is on the intended scope of the document. As I can understand from the title, abstract, the scope is "the requirements for solutions to compress SRv6 SID lists". When I compare that with what was in the charter of the DT in the announcement by our chairs <https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/uL5cLEufipmlQQ_w3VZvb-pznd4/> : ... the requirements for solutions to compressing segment routing information for use over IPv6. Though the difference in texts might seems as small, the scopes they identify differ significantly. To me, it seems as the scope of the draft is targeted to only one possible solution to provide SR over IPv6 functionality, the SRH. Does the DT plan to expand the scope of the draft to match it to its charter? - It appears that in order to qualify whether a proposed compression method complies with the requirement in 3.1.2 an agreement by the WG on the benchmarking method is required because metrics listed, in my view, are platform-dependent. - Though I can appreciate your consideration and using SHOULD in requirement 3.1.3, I don't find it particularly important to be included in the list. After all, it is a matter of the art of implementation. - I think I cannot agree the SID summarization is the only viable technique for the interdomain SR. Replacing MUST with SHOULD might be reasonable, And preferably adding an informative text to describe alternative methods to support the interdomain SR. - I think I understand the intention of the requirement in Section 4.2.1 but I may propose expressing it differently: A path traversed using a list of compressed SIDs MUST always be the same as the path traversed using the list of uncompressed SIDs if no compression was applied. - I think that the use of MUST in requirement 5.1 is too strong. Firstly, such compatibility is not essential in a greenfield scenario. Secondly, the control plane based solution might be envisioned to coordinate the interworking between SR domains using SRv6 and not using the SRv6 technique. And in the conclusion, once again, many thanks to all the members of the Design Team for the job well done.
