Abstract
Methods and systems are described for routing based on a path-based protocol address. Data is detected, by a current node in a current location in a network path, in a data unit that is specified according to a network protocol and that includes a first path-based protocol address including a plurality of path segment identifiers that identify respective path segments of a network path for transmitting data from a source node to a destination node. A current-next path segment identifier is detected, based on the current location, that identifies a current-next path segment in the plurality for transmitting the data from the current node to a next node in the network path. A current-next network interface id determined, based on the current-next path segment identifier, that is included in the current-next path segment. The data is sent, via the current-next network interface, to the next node.
