Subject: Re: [spring] [Isis-wg] Handling same SID mapped to different prefixes 
and vice versa cases

You decide on a per-prefix base,  which node-sid of the originator you want to 
use (if any).
[Pushpasis] The default policy for deciding the sid to use should be the sid 
associated with prefix in the advertisement. Off course that can be overridden 
with some local policy but that is upto the implementation. The default 
behavior should be to use the sid associated with the prefix originally. With 
that default behavior the ingress should be able to use the same tunnel for 
more than one prefixes all originated from the same node. Which means that the 
originator should be able associate the same node-sid with more than one 
prefixes originated locally on that node.

The question I have is what is the problem if we associate the same index for 
multiple prefix as long as those prefixes are all originated on the same node? 
I don’t see a issue yet. If you can pick an example and illustrate the issue 
you have in mind, perhaps it will help me to get convinced as well..


because you brake a simple rule of sid unicity and you will not be able to 
distinguish the case where two prefix legitimately share he same sid from the 
misconfiguration case.

Also, you do not address all use cases with your solution.

Thanks
