BGP Extension for SRv6 Policy Segment List optimization
In some use cases, an SRv6 policy's segment list ends with the
policy endpoint's node SID, and the traffic steered (over policy)
already ensures that it is taken to the policy endpoint. In such
cases, the SID list can be optimized by excluding the endpoint Node
SID when installing the policy.
This document specifies a BGP extension to indicate whether the
endpoint's node SID needs to be included or excluded when installing
the SRv6 Policy. This optimization can improve the forwarding
efficiency of data packets when End SID and Service SID are present.
