	 <t>   An IGP Flexible Algorithm (Flex-Algorithm) allows IGPs to compute
   constraint-based paths.  IGP Flex-Algorithm can be used with Segment
   Routing (SR) or IP data plane.  When used with SR data plane, Flex-
   Algorithm requires to allocate algorithm specific Prefix Segment
   Identifiers (SIDs) or algorithm specific SRv6 Locators.  When used
   with IP data plane, Flex-Algorithm requires to allocate algorithm
   specfic IPv4 or IPv6 prefixes.  This increases the complexity and
   overhead of managing, advertising and maintaining additional SR SIDs,
   SRv6 Locators and IPv4 or IPv6 prefixes, which may not be affordable
   to some networks and network devices.

   This document extends IGP Flex-Algorithm to allow the use of common
   SR SIDs, SRv6 Locators and IP prefixes among multiple Flex-
   Algorithms.
