Abstract Abstract
A Segment Routing (SR) node steers a packet through a controlled set A Segment Routing (SR) node steers a packet through a controlled set
of instructions, called segments, by prepending the packet with an SR of instructions, called segments, by prepending the packet with an SR
header. A segment can represent any instruction, topological or header. A segment can represent any instruction, topological or
service-based. SR allows to enforce a flow through any topological service-based. SR allows to enforce a flow through any topological
path and service chain while maintaining per-flow state only at the path and service chain while maintaining per-flow state only at the
ingress node to the SR domain. ingress node to the SR domain.
