Abstract

A method in a controller node for performing segment routing in a non-packet data network comprising a plurality of nodes, comprises receiving information relating to the topology of the non-packet data network connecting the plurality of nodes, the non-packet data network forming a data plane network. The method comprises computing a segment routing path to be taken for non-packet traffic data through the data plane network, wherein the segment routing path is computed using segment identifiers, SIDs, relating to a data communication network, DCN, coupled to the plurality of nodes. The method comprises sending the computed segment routing path to an ingress node of the data plane network.
