      Gyan>. We could use Aijun’s passive interface new top level TLV to
link the next hop rewrite loopback to the PE-CE links all being set to
passive. So if any PE-CE link goes down a PUA is sent and the next hop
converges PIC core PE-CE link which is now associated with the Loopback.
This would be a major benefit of PUA for PIC core convergence when
next-hop-self is used which applies to MPLS and SR and IP based core.


https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wang-lsr-passive-interface-attribute/

So the two main critical  use cases where this solution solves a problem is
partitioned area scenario and nest hop convergence when next-hop-self is
used scenario.

I will update the presentation deck and share.
