The IESG has received a request from the Source Packet Routing in Networking WG (spring) to consider the following document: - 'Segment Routing IPv6 Security Considerations' <draft-ietf-spring-srv6-security-16.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the last-call@ietf.org mailing lists by 2026-09-17. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract SRv6 is a traffic engineering, encapsulation and steering mechanism utilizing IPv6 addresses to identify segments in a pre-defined policy. This document discusses security considerations in SRv6 networks, including the potential threats and the possible mitigation methods. The document does not define any new security protocols or extensions to existing protocols. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-spring-srv6-security/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
