The approach enables service payloads to be encrypted prior to SRv6 encapsulation, allowing the SRv6 header to remain visible for segment-based forwarding within the provider network. This mechanism supports services or applications that require additional confidentiality and integrity protection, even when carried over an operator-managed SRv6 domain.}, }
