Prefix is anycast, but at least one node advertise a Node-SID with such anycast prefix. There are ways to detect the anycast prefix property - one is defined in the section 6 of draft-ietf-lsr-isis-srv6-extensions - e.g. A-flag. That section says: "If at least one of them sets the A-Flag in its advertisement, the prefix/SRv6 Locator SHOULD be considered as anycast." If the prefix is considered anycast, one should not use the SID advertised with the prefix as Node-SID, even when the N-flag is set for it. Other way to detect the prefix is anycast one is simply looking at the number of sources that advertise it. > > ·The prefix is owned by multiple nodes, and two (or more) of these > nodes advertise it as associated with the Node-SID but with different > indices in the SRGB this is SID conflict, where you have multiple sources of the same prefix advertising a different SID value. There used to be a draft that went into details of all possible SID conflicts (draft-ietf-spring-conflict-resolution), but it became way too complex and people lost interest. > > ·The prefix is owned by multiple nodes, and two (or more) of these > nodes advertise it as associated with the Node-SID with the same index > in the SRGB. problem is the same as the first two. Prefix is anycast, but at least one node advertise a Node-SID wit the anycast prefix. thanks, Peter > > Our experiments (admittedly incomplete) with SR-capable equipment from > different vendors have shown that: > > ·None of the tested devices have reported this situation as an error > when they encounter some of the problematic scenarios > > ·Different devices have demonstrated different forwarding behavior when > they encounter some of the problematic scenarios.
