[Greg Mirsky <[e-mail]>]

Hi Quan,
thank you for your patience and the detailed response, it is clear to me
now how the PCE configures an SR Policy at its headend and endpoint.
Considering that in-depth understanding of PCE is critical for producing an
interoperable implementation of this draft, I strongly believe that RFC
8697, draft-ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp,
and draft-ietf-pce-sr-path-segment must be listed as the Normative
references.

Regards,
Greg

>> Dear All,  I paused to arrange my concerns about the draft and put them in front of you more clearly. Below is what it came to:     - The purpose of Target FEC Stack TLV in LSP echo request, as I    understand it, is to verify consistency between the data plane and the    control plane view of the data plane. That is why the sender of an echo    request with Target FEC Stack TLV includes a sub-TLV that, from the    sender's perspective, sufficiently represents the control plane information    associated with the verifiable label.    - If the above is correct, I move to the next point. All sub-TLVs in the    Target FEC Stack TLV must be validated. The validation process is    sub-TLV-specific. This draft defines the validation process, using PCEP as    an example, as follows:  *  Validate that the signaled headend, color, end-point,  originator ASN, originator address, and discriminator  defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp]  and [I-D.ietf-pce-sr-path-segment], for the PSID,  matches with the corresponding fields in the received  SR Candidate Path's PSID sub-TLV.  Now, my question: What is meant as validation of Headend?     - The reason for my question above is that I cannot find that the    identity of the Headend is included in PCEP constructs defined for the    configuration of an SR Policy. Am I missing something in PCE-related    specifications, or must they be enhanced to convey the identity of the SR    Policy's Headend?    - There's a possible way to use information already available in the    IP-encapsulated echo request message and source IP address. Personally, I    would consider such a check a security measure rather than validation, but    how would validation work if no IP/UDP encapsulation of the echo request is    used?  I hope that I made my concern more evident now. I welcome your comments and questions.
