Hi Yingzhen/All,

I have some concerns regarding the adoption of this document.


   - Do we need these different solutions?

KT> No. There is one common author for both these drafts who is also from a
vendor. I hope that person is also able to evaluate implementation aspects
and pick one solution.
KT> Does the adoption of this solution make the other draft "dead"?

   - Technical merits and drawbacks of each solution

KT> The existing WG draft needs IGP protocol extensions and its
implementation is very complex (as stated in the document under adoption).

   - If there is any implementation of the proposals, please voice it.

KT> I think this is the key question and look forward to the answer.

Coming to this document, please find below my comments/concerns:

1) There is no pseudocode for the new VPN behavior with PSD that covers the
entire behavior - i.e., one that covers not just the "normal" case but the
failure scenarios as well (e.g., PE/CE link failure).
2) The draft requires a transit IPv6 node to perform SRH processing for the
SID that does not belong to it (this is some action that a P router needs
to do when reachability to the PE is lost) and hence does not know what
that SID behavior is. This is something very new for SRv6 and it can cause
problems. e.g., consider the case that the active segment points to a BSID
- what happens when a BSID is skipped.

Thanks,
Ketan
