Abstract:
The Source Packet Routing in Networking (SPRING) architecture
describes how Segment Routing (SR) can be used to steer packets
through an IPv6 or MPLS network using the source routing paradigm.
Segment Routing (SR) enables any head-end node to select any path
without relying on a hop-by-hop signaling technique (e.g., LDP or
RSVP-TE).
It depends only on "segments" that are advertised by Link- State
IGPs. A Segment Routed Path can be derived from a variety of
mechanisms, including an IGP Shortest Path Tree (SPT), explicit
configuration, or a Path Computation Element (PCE).
Since, Segment Routing can be applied to both MPLS and IPv6
forwarding plane, a PCE should be able to compute SR-Path for both
MPLS and IPv6 forwarding plane. This draft describes the extensions
required for Segment Routing support for IPv6 data plane in Path
Computation Element communication Protocol (PCEP).
