Some of you may recall discussing this in SPRING a few meetings ago.

It is an overview of how a number of networking building blocks fit together to
provide interconnection of SR domains.

There is no new technology defined in the document: just a high-level view of
how mechanisms defined in other documents may be combined. Hence, it is an
informational document.

Something we need to add, I think is a description of how SR-MPLS-over-UDP (per
draft-xu-mpls-sr-over-ip) fits in.

We would (of course) welcome thoughts on:
- what is not clear
- what we have missed
- what is OTT to include

Probably we would also like to hear whether there is any value in this document.

Thanks,
Adrian

> Abstract:
>    Segment Routing (SR) is a forwarding paradigm for use in MPLS and
>    IPv6 networks.  It is intended to be deployed in discrete domains
>    that may be data centers, access networks, or other networks that are
>    under the control of a single operator and that can easily be
>    upgraded to support this new technology.

>    The approach described allows connectivity between SR domains,
>    utilizes traffic engineering mechanisms (RSVP-TE or Segment Routing)
