G03-SC: Yes

Rationale

SCION discovers and registers AS-level path segments; an endpoint obtains segments and combines a forwarding path carried in packet headers. Inter-domain forwarding is independent of the endpoint-local address. Neither path resolution nor transit forwarding requires every node to catalog every final endpoint identity.

Assessment method

Primary documentary reassessment; no runtime test

Source context

Selected routing and HIP specifications

Outstanding qualification

The selected numeric ISD-AS and local destination address must be known. Path services, AS-level state and intra-AS delivery remain necessary. This result does not establish unrestricted endpoint discovery, independence from trust roots or global resource bounds.
