This document does not update or change the usage of the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute as specified in [RFC9012] for existing AFI/SAFIs as specified in that document. The details of processing of the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute for the SR Policy SAFI are specified in Section 2.2 and Section 2.3./
