This message starts a spring WG Call for Adoption of:
draft-chen-spring-sr-policy-cp-validity

This Working Group Call for Adoption ends on 2026-04-23

Abstract:
   An SR Policy comprises one or more candidate paths of which at a
   given time one and only one may be active (i.e., installed in
   forwarding plane and usable for steering of traffic).  Each candidate
   path, in turn, may have one or more segment lists of which one or
   more may be active.  When multiple segment lists are active, traffic
   is load balanced over them.  Currently, a candidate path is valid as
   long as at least one of its segment lists is active.  However, this
   default validity criterion does not meet the requirements of some
   scenarios.

   This document defines the new candidate path validity criterion.
