      <abstract>
	 <t>   Enhanced VPNs aim to deliver VPN services with enhanced
   characteristics, such as guaranteed resources, latency, jitter, etc.,
   so as to support customers requirements for connectivity services
   with these enhanced characteristics.  Enhanced VPN requires
   integration between the overlay VPN connectivity and the
   characteristics provided by the underlay network.  A Network Resource
   Partition (NRP) is a subset of the network resources and associated
   policies on each of a connected set of links in the underlay network.
   An NRP could be used as the underlay to support one or a group of
   enhanced VPN services.

   In some network scenarios, each NRP can be associated with a unique
   Flexible Algorithm (Flex-Algo), which can provide constraint-path
   computation based on the customized topological constraints.  This
   document specifies a mechanism to build Segment Routing (SR) based
   NRPs by combining SR Flex-Algo and IGP L2 bundles with minor
   extensions.
