Hi Stewart,

Yes, but those are required anyway to support SRv6

That is incorrect.

Please watch Les's presentation during last IETF where he clearly and
correctly stated that IGP extensions for SRv6 are optional and not required
(unlike in the case of SR-MPLS where such signalling of global labels is
indeed necessary to build "global labels" based forwarding).

As a matter of fact I knew this will generate confusion in IETF and
recommended to make it very clear in the drafts. Distribution of SID
functions does not need to be carried in routing protocols. And SRv6 SID
locator function is native to IPv6 routing hence no extensions needed. Sure
they can be carried in IGPs or BGP but this is just an option not
necessity.

Best,
Robert.
