      <abstract>
	 <t>   The Alternate Marking Method is a passive performance measurement
   method based on marking consecutive batches of packets, which can be
   used to measure packet loss, latency, and jitter of live traffic.
   This method requires a packet marking method so that packet flows can
   be distinguished and identified.

   A mechanism to carry suitable packet marking in the Hop-by-Hop Header
   and the Destination Options Header of an IPv6 packet is described in
   RFC 9343 and is also applicable to Segment Routing for IPv6 (SRv6).

   This document describes an alternative approach that uses a new TLV
   in the Segment Routing Header (SRH) of an SRv6 packet.  This approach
   has been implemented and has potential scaling and simplification
   benefits over the technique described in RFC 9343.

   This protocol extension has been developed outside the IETF and is
   published here to guide implementation, ensure interoperability among
   implementations, and enable wide-scale deployment to determine the
   potential benefits of this approach.
