Hi Les and Acee,
Thank you very much for your feedback.
Regarding the two questions, my reply is as follows:
1. About advertising protected prefix,
When in a network with incremental/partial deployment of SAV, it is possible
to identify which prefixes need to be used to generate SAV rules through the
protection prefix.
After receiving this routing information, it is up to the router to decide
whether to differentiate and process it based on this sub-TLV, or whether to
discard packets from unprotected prefixes.
Of course, once all routers in the domain support SAV, all prefixes should
be processed without the need for specialized protection prefixes.
2. About advertising reverse cost,
The Prefix-reverse-cost sub-TLV is used to carry the total reverse cost
from the router where the prefix is located to ABR in the inter-area network.
If within the same area, it is not necessary to carry the reverse cost sub-TLV.
I have read the patent
https://patents.google.com/patent/US11882019B1/en?oq=11882019.
I am not sure whether my understanding is accurate. It mentions the need
for additional SPF calculation rooted at the other ABRs for the source area
when inter-area, but does not describe how to get reverse metrics. I think it
is still necessary to advertise reverse cost.
Best regards,
Yuanxiang

The problem can be solved - and in a much more robust way than what is proposed
in the draft - without any protocol extensions.
There is no reason for this draft.
