Abstract:
In one embodiment, segment routing network processing of packets is performed, including using segment routing packet policies and functions providing segment routing processing signaling and packet forwarding efficiencies in a network. A segment routing node signals to another segment routing node using a signaled segment identifier in a segment list of a segment routing packet with the segments left identifying a segment list element above the signaled segment identifier. A downstream segment routing node receives the segment routing packet, obtains this signaled segment identifier, and performs processing of one or more packets based thereon. In one embodiment, a provider edge node replaces its own segment identifier in a received customer packet, with a downstream customer node using the replaced (signaling) segment identifier (of a provider edge node/segment routing function) for accessing a return path through the provider network.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 4 , wherein said received signal packet processing by the third segment routing node on the specific segment routing packet includes adding to the specific segment routing packet one or more response path segment identifiers specifying a segment routing path through the network.
