Hi Peter:

    If Ti-LFA can protect IP flexalgo, the native IP and SR must share the same 
algorithm ID.

thanks,
Zhibo

there is a similar text in section 8, but more work is required indeed.

One important note - TI-LFA requires some form of traffic steering. This can be 
achieved by enabling both IP and SR flex-algo and use SR FA only to protect IP 
FA, similar to protection of "unlabeled" traffic with SR MPLS. Or some 
alternative mechanism for enforcing the traffic on the LFA path is required.

yes, the flex-algo application uses Flex-algo specific link attributes as 
defined in base flex-algo draft.

thanks,
Peter
