Zusammenfassung:An interworking network device receives from a first other network device associated with an MPLS domain, a route that includes a label, a prefix, and a next-hop identifier that indicates the first other network device. The interworking network device thereby generates a prefix SID attribute that includes a SID value and information indicating a structure of the SID value, wherein a LOC portion of the SID value identifies the interworking network device, and a first sub-portion of a FUNCT portion of the SID value identifies an endpoint behavior of the interworking network device in association with the first other network device. The interworking network device modifies the route to cause the next-hop identifier to indicate the interworking network device, and to cause the route to include the prefix SID attribute. The interworking network device thereby sends the route to a second other network device associated with an SRv6 domain.
