    Abstract: A method, network device, and computer readable medium are disclosed. In one embodiment of the method, a data packet is received at a node within a first segment routing enabled access network. The first access network is connected, via a first area edge node, to a first area of a subdivided segment routing enabled network, and a specified destination for the data packet is reachable via a second segment routing enabled access network connected to the subdivided network. The method embodiment further includes receiving from a centralized controller a remote segment identifier stack, where the remote segment identifier stack encodes a path extending from the first area edge node to the second access network. The embodiment of the method continues with encapsulating the data packet with a full segment identifier stack comprising the remote segment identifier stack, and forwarding the encapsulated data packet toward the first area edge node.

    Abstract: An example method for seamless path monitoring and rapid fault isolation using bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) in a network environment is provided and includes determining a BFD target identifier type for communicating in a BFD session in a network environment, determining a non-zero globally assigned BFD discriminator value associated with the BFD target identifier type, populating a Your Discriminator field in a BFD Control Packet with the non-zero globally assigned BFD discriminator value, with a My Discriminator field in the BFD Control Packet being populated with a locally assigned BFD Discriminator value, and initiating the BFD session by transmitting the BFD Control Packet to a target node in the network. In a specific embodiment, the BFD target identifier type is type 3, and the non-zero globally assigned BFD discriminator is an Alert Discriminator reserved by substantially all nodes in the network exclusively for BFD traceroute operations.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a circuit that extends between a head-end label switching router (LSR) and a tail-end LSR and traverses one or more intermediate LSRs is locked to data plane traffic. The head-end LSR transmits a packet along the circuit that includes a particular time-to-live (TTL) value configured to expire at a particular intermediate LSR at which loopback is to occur. The circuit is used in a loopback mode. The head-end LSR transmits along the circuit a packet that includes a cease loopback request. The circuit ceases to be used in the loopback mode. The circuit is unlocked to permit the circuit to pass data plane traffic.
