Abstract:
A device may obtain a Segment Routing Internet Version 6 (SRv6) packet; determine a first segment identifier, based on the SRv6 packet, that includes a node identifier, a function identifier, and a Single-Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI); obtain the function identifier and the S-NSSAI from the segment identifier; and execute a first instruction, which corresponds to the function identifier, for a network slice specified by the S-NSSAI.
