Re: WG adoption for draft-hu-rtgwg-srv6-egress-protection

Dear Authors,
I have got a question about the switchover procedure in the scenario
described in Section 3. As I understand, P1 monitors the path to PE3 using,
for example, BFD. Once it detects the failure, P1 starts using the
pre-computed and pre-signaled path towards PE4. In order to do that, P1
does, as described in the text:

P1 modifies the packet before sending it to PE4.

I've looked for what are these modifications and, as I understand it, think
that it is an update to SRH, P1 appends the Mirror SID A4:1::3 to the
segment list. Is that correct understanding? If it is, I'm not sure that it
is a valid operation for P1? Have we heard from 6man experts about this?
I'd greatly appreciate your clarification on this as this mechanism, in my
understanding of the document, is the foundation of the proposed solution
and without it it may not be feasible.

Regards,
Greg
