It is typically deployed in discrete domains that may be data centers, access networks, or other networks that are under the control of a single operator and that can easily be upgraded to support this new technology. Traffic originating in one SR domain often terminates in another SR domain, but must transit a backbone network that provides interconnection between those domains. This document describes a mechanism for providing connectivity between SR domains to enable end-to-end or domain-to-domain traffic engineering. The approach described: allows connectivity between SR domains, utilizes traffic engineering mechanisms (RSVP-TE or Segment Routing) across the backbone network, makes heavy use of pre-existing technologies requiring the specifications of very few additional mechanisms. This document some background and a problem statement, explains the solution mechanism, and provides examples. It does not define any new protocol mechanisms.}, }
