Are you wrestling with enterprise network complexity? Advanced features like traffic engineering, ultra-fast failover, and network slicing often mean piling on complex protocols. This podcast episode dives deep into Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6), a technology that promises to deliver these advanced capabilities while radically simplifying your network.
Join us as we cut through the hype to explore how SRv6 works, moving intelligence to the network edge and making the core stateless. We unpack key concepts like segments, SIDs, and network programming, and explain how SRv6 eliminates legacy protocols like LDP and RSVP-TE. Discover how SRv6 enables powerful services, from network slicing with Flex Algo to sub-50ms protection with TI-LFA, and even allows for user-defined functions that integrate with P4 and Kubernete
