Tutorial: Segment Routing

Speakers:
Ron Bonica, Juniper Networks
Segment Routing (SR) allows network operators to direct traffic from source to destination through an ordered set of segments. The SR path may be identical to or different from the IGP least-cost path. SR differs from traditional traffic engineering (TE) mechanisms in that it moves TE state from transit routers into the packet header. This tutorial addresses the SR forwarding as it is realized for MPLS and IPv6. It also addresses OSPF, ISIS and BGP extensions for SR by Ron Bonica
