Speaking as WG member...
I agree that an independent calculation is required for IP Flex Algorithm and
SR Flex Algorithm and this should be documented. However, it doesn't seem to me
a normal use case would be to deploy them in the same IGP area.
Thanks,

Hi Ron,
I can only guess the use-case, but it may be worth of documenting it in
the draft.
Your proposal is basically mimicking SRv6 Locator behavior for regular
IPv6 and IPv4 prefixes. One can even argue that for IPv6 you can use a
Locator advertisement with no SIDs, but I agree that would be a hack and
separate encoding is cleaner.
One thing that needs further work is the algo participation part. Given
that we have a separate participation for SR and IP flex-algo, one would
have to run a separate calculation each in the context of the same
flex-algo. Even though in most cases one would expect the set of
participating routers to be the same for both. I don't see an easy way
out, actually this is what the base FA draft requires it in section
10.2. What I would suggest is to clearly document the fact that the
computation for the IP flex-algo is independent of the other flex-algo
computations (e.g. SR) and that IP flex-algo is an application of its
own from the flex-algo perspective.
Les has commented on ISIS encoding, I have a question on OSPF one - have
you considered using the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA with OSPFv2
Extended Prefix TLV (rfc7684) and define a new "IP Felex-algo" metric
sub-TLV?
thanks,
Peter
