Hi,

All fine and your use case is valid. I never said it is not.

* But first it makes all those claims that solutions under discussion are
not to be used in Internet moot.

* Second you can use subset of SRH just fitted to your need end to end
without any encapsulation

* Last if I were you I would just use RbR idea I proposed and move on :)
Honestly since it uses plain old IPv6 FIB with just a little cli you could
find it actually may work fine on shipping hardware already. Is there
anything better then to meet your functionality without rolling in new
features and software ? Moreover make it work across any vendor and across
Internet ? Beats me why you guys keep arguing for pushing CRH.

Many thx,
Robert.
