Joel,

In section 7.1 we provide a fair amount of detail surrounding filtering a
trusted domain. For example:


















*7.1.  Trusted Domains and Filtering7.1.1.  Overview   As specified in
[RFC8402]:    By default, SR operates within a trusted domain.  Traffic
MUST be    filtered at the domain boundaries.    The use of best practices
to reduce the risk of tampering within the    trusted domain is important.
Such practices are discussed in    [RFC4381] and are applicable to both
SR-MPLS and SRv6.   Following the spirit of [RFC8402], the current document
assumes that   SRv6 is deployed within a trusted domain.  Traffic MUST be
filtered   at the domain boundaries.  Thus, most of the attacks described
in   this document are limited to within the domain (i.e., internal
 attackers).*
There is quite a lot dedicated to protecting the TD and what it means if it
isn't.
Would that be sufficient?
