Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques for using Operations, Administration, and Management (OAM) operations when routing packets using micro SIDs in segment routing. For example, a network device comprises one or more processors configured to: receive a packet; determine whether the packet is encapsulated with one or more micro segment identifiers (SIDs); in response to a determination that the packet is not encapsulated with one or more micro SIDs, determine whether the packet has reached a segment routing tunnel endpoint; and in response to a determination that the packet has reached the segment routing tunnel endpoint, initiate Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM).
