Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6) defines several headend behaviors for how SRH (Segment Routing Headers) are added:
B. H.Insert — Inserts an SRH into an existing IPv6 packet.
C. H.Encaps — Encapsulates the original packet in a new IPv6 packet with an SRH.
D. H.Insert.Red — Performs insert behavior and reduces the payload for optimization.
A. H.Encaps.Red is not a defined SRv6 behavior — it’s an invalid option.
Exact Extract - Huawei SRv6 White Paper:
“H.Insert, H.Insert.Red, and H.Encaps are valid behaviors for injecting SRH. H.Encaps.Red is not defined in the SRv6 headend behavior set.”
