Dear Authors,
I am requesting your clarification regarding prefix-SID sub TLV  advertisement for IPv6 data plane.

In case of data plane is IPV6 data plane,  while advertising IPv6 prefix (Node/Prefix SID) in E-intra/E-inter prefix TLV of extension LSAS, whether we need to include Prefix-SID sub TLV.
If need to include, we can encode  Ipv6 address prefix in SID/Label sub TLV. As per draft, if the length of this sub TLV must be 3 or 4.

For Adj-SID,  for SID filed it is clearly mention it may be ipv6 address, but it is not mentioned for Prefix- SID sub TLV.
It means for IPv6 prefix segment advertisement , Prefix-SID sub TLV  may not be required to advertise in extension LSAs.

Regards,
Veerendranath
