Abstract
A method for transporting a Multi-Transport Network Context Identifier (MTNC-ID) over a Segment Routing Version 6 (SRV6) enabled data plane for fifth generation (5G) transport. The method includes setting an indicator in a flags field of a SRV6 header of a data packet that an MTNC-ID type-length-value (TLV) is included in a TLV field of the SRV6 header. The MTNC-ID TLV for the MTNC-ID is inserted in the TLV field of the SRV6 header of the data packet. The data packet with the SRV6 header containing the MTNC-ID is transmitted over the SRV6 enabled data plane to a next node along a forwarding path corresponding to the MTNC-ID.
