Abstract:
Segment Routing (SR) is an emerging
technology to enforce the effective routing strategies
without relying on signaling protocols. SR only needs
to define the path information through the network at
the ingress device and this mechanism make Software
Defined Networking (SDN) routing management
more simple and efficient. In this paper, we intend to
involve as a small part of SDN-SR evolution by
studying the architecture of SR and use-cases of SR
in SDN environment. Moreover, we highlight the
advantages of SR by comparing SR and other route
computing methods applied in some use cases.
