Network-Driven Service Programming Controller using SRv6: A Demonstration

This demo paper presents a hands-on demonstration of a dynamic, network-driven path calculation and service function chaining solution for service provider networks. The proposed solution addresses the challenges associated with static service consumption, such as complex and costly management and the inability to react to network changes. By leveraging Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6) capabilities, our solution enables efficient and scalable path calculations, facilitating improved network service management. The demonstration at NoF 2023 will provide attendees with a tangible experience of the dynamic path calculation process and network-driven service programming in action, highlighting the benefits of our approach in a live environment. The goal is to encourage further research and innovation in dynamic network service management, enhancing modern communication networks’ efficiency, flexibility, and resilience.
