Similiarly, you don't have to run telnet on port 23.

But, a tool could well assume traffic on port 23 is telnet, and traffic to
the 6man-sids allocation is SRv6.  If someone has used a different
port/address, then they can tell the tool that.

(Why is the 5f00::/16 in the document, if that's not allocated?  I'd expect
the document to say TBD)
