Hi SPRING, A new draft was submitted to specify how an ACH6 (associated channel over IPv6) control channel is used in a Segment Routing network. On one hand, SRv6 SIDs list in SRH provides a certain SRv6 path. On the other hand, ACH6 provides the control and management capability to the SRv6 path.
Here is some background info if you are not acquainted with ACH6, ACH6 is initially proposed at IETF 110 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-yang-rtgwg-ipv6-associated-channel-01) ACH6 in SR (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-yang-spring-ach6-sr) and ACH6 OAM mechanism in SR (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-yang-spring-ach6-oam-sr) are proposed at IETF 111 As always, comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Stay safe.

Title : ACH6 in Segment Routing Authors : Fan Yang Tianran Zhou Filename : draft-yang-spring-ach6-sr-00.txt Pages : 11 Date : 2021-07-12 Abstract: Associated Channel over IPv6 (ACH6) provides a control channel to one specific IPv6 forwarding path for control and management purpose. When ACH6 is used in a Segment Routing network, it provides a control channel to an SRv6 path. This document specifies an SRv6 ACH6 mechanism and describes how ACH6 is applied in a Segment Routing network.
