Hi Stefano,

What's the motivation for using 32-bit SIDs, rather than 20-bit MPLS labels for IPv6, especially when the GLOBAL MPLS label concept has been explicitly supported by the draft and encapsulating an MPLS label stack into an IPv6-based tunnel (e.g., MPLS-over-GRE) is a very mature technology?

Best regards,
Xiaohu
