(speaking as a WG member trying to understand this exchange.)
Having two codes, one for NEXT-ONLY-CSID and one for NEXT-CSID seems odd.
In terms of what the node does with packets addressed to SIDs with the
given behavior, they seem to be the same.
So if I understand properly, the different is an implication about the
existence of SIDs for this node with other behaviors? But wouldn't
receivers determine such behavior being available from the
advertisements of those behaviors? If there are no other advertised
(compressed?) behaviors, wouldn't that tell you everything you need to
know. If there are such other advertiements, but 42 (NEXT-ONLY-CSID) is
advertised what would that mean? And conversely, if there are no other
advertised relevant behaviors, what would it mean to advertise 43
(NEXT-CSID)?
Yours,
Joel

Hi Trevor,
This refers to a node that only processes the ::/64 (shift-and-lookup)
of 4.1.1.
Cheers,

Hi all,
What is the meaning of NEXT-ONLY-CSID? It isn't clear to me what the
difference is between 42 and 43 below?
+=======+========+======================================+===========+
| Value | Hex | Endpoint behavior | Reference |
+=======+========+======================================+===========+
| 42 | 0x002A | End with NEXT-ONLY-CSID | [This.ID] |
+-------+--------+--------------------------------------+-----------+
| 43 | 0x002B | End with NEXT-CSID | [This.ID] |
+-------+--------+--------------------------------------+-----------+
(Looks like a similar question was asked before here
<https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/CAhP45_cgEQ2_1cWLFBdm8llJYA/>,
but I didn't see an answer.)
Thanks,
Trevor
