AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In segment routing networks, network devices may fail to recognize the bound segment identifier (BSID), leading to incorrect or unreasonable processing results.

Method used

By explicitly indicating the type information of the BSID in the message, and using the message's type field (such as the Type or Flags field) to identify the BSID, error handling can be avoided.

Benefits of technology

This ensures smooth data forwarding and avoids false alarms and improper handling caused by the inability to identify the BSID.

Abstract

The embodiment of the application provides a processing method and device for binding segment identification, the method comprises the following steps: a network device receives a message sent by a controller, the message comprises type information and segment identification, the type information is used for indicating that the segment identification is a binding segment identification BSID; the network device performs a processing action on the BSID according to the type information. By adopting the embodiment of the application, the network device can identify the BSID, and the technical problem that an error processing result is caused when the segment identification list of the network device comprises the BSID can be solved.
