Hi Arashmid,

     >[Arashmid] Embed vs Encode? Is this issue?

[Uma2:]It’s not embed or encode. It says each SID.

[Uma2]: I am not questioning how each bearer get a different TEID or how 
separate tunnels are maintained per PDU session between eNB-SGW or SGW-PGW.  
It’s good this being planned to achieve in traditional mode. However, if this 
is seen as GTP replacement option, by moving TEID of the GTP header encoded 
into each SRv6 SID, the unintended consequence is we are making 3GPP 
functionalities that are associated with TEID specific to one transport 
underlay.
There are various other modes defined in the document, for example 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dmm-srv6-mobile-uplane-02#section-5.3 
(called Enhanced mode with unchanged gNB GTP behavior)
In that case I see separation maintained and with a possibility of multiple 
SRv6 features, that can be applied in underlay as needed.
