Abstract:
In one embodiment, new Segment Routing capabilities are used in the steering of packets through Segment Routing nodes in a network. A Segment List includes a set of one or more Segment List (SL) Groups, each of which identifies one or more Segments contiguously or non-contiguously stored in the Segment List (or stored across multiple Segment Lists) of a Segment Routing packet. Each SL Group typically includes one Segment that is encoded as a Segment Identifier, and may include Segments that are Extended Values. The steering order of SL Groups is not required to be the same order as they are listed in the Segment List, as the value of Segments Left may be increased, remain the same, or decreased (possibly to skip a next SL Group) and possibly based on the result of an evaluation of a conditional expression.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 1 , comprising:\n receiving, by a second Segment Routing node in the network, the particular Segment Routing packet subsequent to said forwarding by the first Segment Routing node; and after processing the particular Segment Routing packet, the second Segment Routing node sending into the network the particular Segment Routing packet with the IP Destination Address having a value of the first Segment Identifier and with the Segments Left value identifying the first SL Group in the Segment List.
