Abstract:
A node in a Segment Routing network includes circuitry configured to signal first service Segment Identifiers (SIDs), for one or more first Ethernet services configured at the node, to other nodes in the Segment Routing network, receive second service SIDs for one or more second Ethernet services configured at the other nodes in the Segment Routing network, and configure the second service SIDs for one or more second Ethernet services. The first service SIDs and the second service SIDs can be signaled by one of Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
