Abstract

This document identifies various threats to networks employing segment routing over an IPv6 transport. Segment Routing inherits potential security vulnerabilities from source routing in general, and from label-switching approaches such as MPLS. The document discusses how common security vulnerabilities may be present in SRv6 networks, depending on the security policies that are imposed.
