Hi SPRING,
The SR-MPLS Path Segment draft has been published as RFC9545, and we think the
content of SRv6 Path Segment draft is quite stable and mature, so we hope to
see more tech reviews on it so that we can move the draft forward.
The draft is quite simple and straightforward, and it defines a new type of
segment called Path Segment, which is useful to identify an SRv6 path, similar
to SR-MPLS path segment.
The draft only defines the location that the SRv6 Path Segment should appear,
the possible general formats of it, and the general handling of Path Segment.
How to allocate the value to a Path Segment is out of the scope of this draft
and should be defined as per use cases.
An SRv6 Path Segment will not be used for routing so it should not be copied to
the IPv6 destination address.
Many thanks for Adrian, Stefano and Zafar for their useful comments and help on
this draft. More reviews and comments are welcome!
Thanks,
Cheng

Abstract:
Segment Routing (SR) allows for a flexible definition of end-to-end
paths by encoding an ordered list of instructions, called "segments".
The SR architecture can be implemented over an MPLS data plane as
well as an IPv6 data plane.
Currently, Path Segment has been defined to identify an SR path in
SR-MPLS networks, and is used for various use-cases such as end-to-
end SR Path Protection and Performance Measurement (PM) of an SR
path. This document defines the Path Segment to identify an SRv6
path in an IPv6 network.
