The problem you are describing is not SR specific, it would apply to LDP as well. So the indication should not be about SR, but about MPLS forwarding support on interface. With MPLS being deployed for more then 20 years, I wonder why there was no need to solve this issue earlier and why we need to address it now with SR. > Since these links should be used for IP forwarding IGPs will advertise these > links. > It is better to have explicit indication of this rather than use absence of > adjacency-sid on the link. > > With the new SR flag, while the SPF and the SR-Path does not change, > there is an indication To the controller and head-end nodes that the links > cannot do SR-MPLS forwarding. > The controller or head-end implementations may have mechanisms to > prevent pulling Traffic on SR paths.

These mechanisms are specific to SR-TE when the paths are built based on constraints. Link color based solution cannot be used when the SR traffic is flowing over SPF paths using Node-SIDs. thanks, Peter > > Rgds > Shraddha > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2017 4:03 PM > To: [email protected]; > [email protected] > Subject: RE: [Isis-wg] WG Adoption poll for > draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols > > Hi Authors, > > One question, why do you think it is really needed to introduce the SR flag ? > Couldn't it be deduced from the presence of an Adj-SID and the SR router cap ? > The SR flag unset while the router supports SR looks strange to me.
