IMHO, that is a very troubling idea. The troubling item is that it's possible to source SRv6 traffic remotely across the Internet. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-raviolli-intarea-trusted-domain-srv6-03 describes the problem space and a possible mitigation. What's next - complaints that you can encapsulate BFD in IP-in-IP or GRE packets? MPLS? Oh wait we have that one... -- Jeff (time to write the "packet encspsulated in Foo considered harmful" 1 April RFC?) -- last-call mailing list -- last-call@xxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to last-call-leave@xxxxxxxx
