SRPerf: a Performance Evaluation Framework for IPv6 Segment Routing

Segment Routing (SR) is a form of loose source routing. It provides the ability to include a list of instructions, called segments, in the packet header. The SR architecture has been first implemented with the MPLS (SR-MPLS) data plane and then, quite recently, with the IPv6 data plane (SRv6). SRv6 is a promising solution to support advanced services such as Traffic Engineering, Service Function C...
