Abstract:
In one embodiment, segment routing (SR) network processing of packets is performed on packets having a segment identifier structure providing processing and/or memory efficiencies. Responsive to an identified particular segment routing policy, the particular router retrieves from memory a dynamic segment routing identifier portion of the particular SR policy that includes a SR node value and a SR function value. The SR function value identifies segment routing processing to be performed by a router in the network identified based on the SR node value. A segment routing discriminator is independently identified, possibly being a fixed value for all segment identifiers in the network. Before sending into the network, a complete segment identifier is added to the particular packet by combining the segment routing discriminator with the dynamic segment routing identifier portion. The particular packet including the complete segment identifier is sent into the network.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 2 , comprising:\n advertising, via a routing protocol in the network, a route corresponding to the complete segment identifier such that packets in the network matching the route are forwarded through the network to the router; updating with the route and forwarding information a routing information base (RIB) and a data plane forwarding information base (FIB) in the particular router and in another router in network; receiving, by the router, the particular packet with the complete segment identifier said added; and particular segment routing processing, by the router, of the particular packet based on the SR function value in the complete segment identifier; wherein the particular packet is said sent from the particular router based on said forwarding information corresponding to the route in the FIB in the particular router.
