Hi Rakesh,

I'm not sure. The intermediate nodes are not supposed to check the SRH, right? 
If so, a flag in SRH doesn't help.

On the other hand, RFC 8986 said "It is RECOMMENDED that an implementation of 
local configuration only allows Upper-Layer header processing of types that do 
not result in the packet being forwarded (e.g., ICMPv6)." I don't know how to 
interpret this sentence. If the upper header is UDP, the packet will be 
forwarded, right? Does that mean that it is not recommended to configure the 
processing of UDP as the upper layer protocol. Then a flag bit might be useful.

Hi Haoyu,

Catching-up on the old email thread.

Is this new SRH flag needed for intermediate nodes to process UDP header?

For the end-point nodes, there is upper layer header procedure defined in RFC 
8986 that is used by the draft.

Thanks,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh and the other authors,



Since this draft also propose to use UDP for active measurement in SRv6,
I'd like to suggest that a flag bit in SRH is used to indicate that.
The reasons are twofold: (1) routers may only look at L3 header for forwarding 
without examining the L4 header.
So if a test packet can only be identified by UDP port, it may be missed; (2) 
it's possible to use the
same mechanism to support other kinds of active measurements
(e.g., HBH IOAM as proposed in our draft 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-song-spring-siam-02.



Best,

Haoyu

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

This draft is a work item of the Source Packet Routing in Networking WG of the 
IETF.

for Segment Routing Networks

Abstract:

   Segment Routing (SR) leverages the source routing paradigm.  SR is

   applicable to both Multiprotocol Label Switching (SR-MPLS) and IPv6

   (SRv6) data planes.  This document describes procedures for

   Performance Measurement in SR networks using the mechanisms defined

   in RFC 8762 (Simple Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (STAMP)) and

   its optional extensions defined in RFC 8972 and further augmented in

   draft-ietf-ippm-stamp-srpm.  The procedure described is applicable to

   SR-MPLS and SRv6 data planes and is used for both links and end-to-

   end SR paths including SR Policies.
