Understanding SRv6 BE in Networking Traditional MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) relies on control plane protocols like LDP (Label Distribution Protocol) and RSVP-TE. SRv6 BE (Segment Routing over IPv6 Best Effort) simplifies this by utilizing only one service SID (Segment Identifier) for guiding packet forwarding in best-effort mode on an IP network. Unlike traditional MPLS, SRv6… Continue reading Demystifying SRv6 BE: Streamlining MPLS in IP Networks

SRv6: The Game-Changer for Network Automation and Orchestration
Introduction: Segment Routing with IPv6 data plane, commonly known as SRv6, has emerged as a transformative technology in the networking world. Building upon the foundation of Segment Routing (SR) and IPv6, SRv6 combines the best of both worlds, integrating routing and MPLS capabilities while enhancing network programmability. Since its early proposal in 2013, SRv6 has… Continue reading SRv6: The Game-Changer for Network Automation and Orchestration
