Re: [OSPF] I-D Action: draft-ietf-ospf-segment-routing-extensions-13.txt

Hi Shraddha,

When the ABR originates the Extended Prefix TLV with A (attached) bit set, it indicates that the prefix belongs to it (i.e. connected in perhaps another area on the same node). So PHP must be done on previous router.

I don't see the issue or need for clarification here. Or am I not following your point well?

Thanks,
Ketan

Authors,

Apologies for being late with this comment in the process of standardization.

The below section 5 describes the PHP for mapping server

" As the Mapping Server does not specify the originator of a prefix
   advertisement, it is not possible to determine PHP behavior solely
   based on the Mapping Server advertisement.  However, PHP behavior
   SHOULD be done in following cases:

      The Prefix is intra-area type and the downstream neighbor is the
      originator of the prefix.

      The Prefix is inter-area type and downstream neighbor is an ABR,
      which is advertising prefix reachability and is also generating
      the Extended Prefix TLV with the A-flag set for this prefix as
      described in section 2.1 of [RFC7684]."

The text says "PHP behavior" should be done in following cases.
In the second case here it's an ABR re-advertising a prefix and SID being advertised for this
Prefix from a mapping server. If we interpret "PHP behavior should be done"
As the penultimate router removing the label and forwarding the packet to ABR,
It does not work since the inner labels gets exposed at the ABR.

Request authors to add clarification text around "PHP behavior".

Shraddha

Abstract:
   Segment Routing (SR) allows a flexible definition of end-to-end paths
   within IGP topologies by encoding paths as sequences of topological
   sub-paths, called "segments".  These segments are advertised by the
   link-state routing protocols (IS-IS and OSPF).

   This draft describes the OSPF extensions required for Segment
   Routing.
