Processing a flow at the egress node in segment routing

This disclosure describes techniques that include determining, at an egress node in an SRm6 network, how to process a packet that may arrive without a segment routing header and/or a compressed routing header. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes receiving, by an egress n...

Zusammenfassung:	This disclosure describes techniques that include determining, at an egress node in an SRm6 network, how to process a packet that may arrive without a segment routing header and/or a compressed routing header. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes receiving, by an egress node of a segment routing network, segment routing advertisements; configuring, by the egress node and based on the segment routing advertisements, information enabling the egress node to recognize encapsulated packets arriving at the egress node without a compressed routing header; receiving, by the egress node, a packet that does not have a compressed routing header; and de-encapsulating, by the egress node and based on the stored information, the packet.
