Hi BESS,

Mainly a keep-alive on this draft. A couple of insignificant tweaks.

We think this draft is in a circling pattern until two references have
progressed through IDR:
- draft-ietf-idr-bgpls-segment-routing-epe
- draft-ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps

> Abstract:
>    Data centers have become critical components of the infrastructure
>    used by network operators to provide services to their customers.
>    Data centers are attached to the Internet or a backbone network by
>    gateway routers.  One data center typically has more than one gateway
>    for commercial, load balancing, and resiliency reasons.
> 
>    Segment routing is a popular protocol mechanism for operating within
>    a data center, but also for steering traffic that flows between two
>    data center sites.  In order that one data center site may load
>    balance the traffic it sends to another data center site it needs to
>    know the complete set of gateway routers at the remote data center,
>    the points of connection from those gateways to the backbone network,
>    and the connectivity across the backbone network.
> 
>    Segment routing may also be operated in other domains, such as access
>    networks.  Those domains also need to be connected across backbone
>    networks through gateways.
> 
>    This document defines a mechanism using the BGP Tunnel Encapsulation
>    attribute to allow each gateway router to advertise the routes to the
>    prefixes in the segment routing domains to which it provides access,
>    and also to advertise on behalf of each other gateway to the same
>    segment routing domain.
