Hi,
There is some obvious similarity between the problem addressed in the
(expired)
draft-ietf-spring-segment-protection-sr-te-paths-03<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-spring-segment-protection-sr-te-paths-03>
and
draft-chen-rtgwg-srv6-midpoint-protection<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-chen-rtgwg-srv6-midpoint-protection-09>.
In the general case, the solutions seem to be quite different because the
former draft uses MPLS-specific mechanisms (context label spaces etc.) that are
not available with SRv6.
But Section 6 of the former
draft<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-spring-segment-protection-sr-te-paths-03#section-6>
offers a simple optimization for the special case that looks to me as matching
the needs of the latter draft.
If this is indeed so, it would be nice to specify this explicitly in one (or
even both) of the drafts.
If this is not so, I would really appreciate the explanation.
Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha
