Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document describes a mechanism to allocate network resources to
   one or a set of Segment Routing Identifiers (SIDs).  Such SIDs are
   referred to as resource-aware SIDs.  The resource-aware SIDs retain
   their original forwarding semantics, with the additional semantics to
   identify the set of network resources available for the packet
   processing and forwarding action.  The proposed mechanism is
   applicable to both segment routing with MPLS data plane (SR-MPLS) and
   segment routing with IPv6 data plane (SRv6).

Working Group Summary

   Broad consensus to publish and several directorate reviews (authors have responded in a timely fashion).
 

Document Quality

   One implementation as documentated in the implementation section of the document.

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Alvaro Retana. The
   Responsible Area Director is Jim Guichard.
