6.  Security Considerations

   The security considerations of SRv6 are discussed in [RFC8754] and
   [RFC8986], and the security considerations of Alternate Marking in
   general and its application to IPv6 are discussed in [RFC9341] and
   [RFC9343].

   [RFC9343] analyzes different security concerns and related solutions.
   These aspects are valid and applicable also to this document.  In
   particular, the fundamental security requirement is that Alternate
   Marking MUST only be applied in a limited domain, as also mentioned
   in [RFC8799] and Section 2.1.

   Alternate Marking is a feature applied to a trusted domain, where a
   single operator decides on leveraging and configuring Alternate
   Marking according to their needs.  Additionally, operators need to
   properly secure the Alternate-Marking domain to avoid malicious
   configuration and attacks, which could include injecting malicious
   packets into a domain.  Therefore, the implementation of Alternate
   Marking is applied within a controlled domain where the network nodes
   are locally administered and where packets containing the AltMark TLV
   are prevented from entering or leaving the domain.  A limited
   administrative domain provides the network administrator with the
   means to select, monitor, and control the access to the network.
