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

Segment Routing can be applied to the IPv6 data plane with the
addition of a new type of Routing Extension Header. This draft
describes the Segment Routing Extension Header Type and how it is
used by SR capable nodes.
