Huawei Technologies Cisco Systems Cisco Systems RtBrick Inc. Huawei Technologies Segment Routing (SR) allows for a flexible definition of end-to-end paths by encoding paths as sequences of topological sub-paths, called "segments". These segments are advertised by routing protocols e.g. by the link state routing protocols (IS-IS, OSPFv2 and OSPFv3) within IGP topologies. This draft defines extensions to the BGP Link-state address-family in order to carry segment routing information via BGP.
