 <t>
    When Segment Routing tunnels are computed by a centralized
      controller, it is crucial that the controller knows
      MSD "Maximum SID Depth" of the node or link SR tunnel exits over, so it doesn't
      download a path with SID (label stack) of a depth more than
      the node or link configured is capable of imposing.This document
      describes how to use  BGP-LS to expose the MSD of the node or link configured to a centralized
      controller.

PCE Capability TLV/ METRIC Object as defined in

supported by the node  (head-end of the SR tunnel) controller has no way to learn the MSD of the node/link configured.
