Hi 6man and SPRING,

We submitted a new draft in 6man WG to describe the encoding and processing of SRv6 Path Segment, called draft-li-6man-srv6-path-segment-encap-00.txt.

In several use cases, such as binding bidirectional path and end-to-end performance measurement the ability to implement path identification is a pre-requisite.  

In SRv6, an SRv6 path can be identified by the content of the segment list. However, the segment list may not be a good key to identify an SRv6 path, since the length of segment list is too long and flexible according to the number of SIDs.  Therefore, I-D.li-spring-srv6-path-segment defines SRv6 Path Segment in order to identify an SRv6 path.

This document defines the encoding and processing of SRv6 Path Segment in SRv6 networks.

Welcome to review the document, and hope we can have your valuable comments.

Best Regards,
Cheng

Abstract:
   Segment Routing (SR) allows for a flexible definition of end-to-end
   paths by encoding paths as sequences of sub-paths, called "segments".
   Segment routing architecture can be implemented over IPv6 data plane,
   called SRv6.  In some use-cases such as end-to-end SR Path Protection
   and Performance Measurement (PM), SRv6 path need to be identified.
   This document defines the encoding and processing of Path Segment in
   SRv6 networks.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
