Abstract
A method used by an egress router is disclosed. The egress router receives a first packet from an initial ingress router addressed to an anycast address of an application server. The egress router transmits the first packet to the application server. The egress router receives a second packet from the application server. The second packet is addressed to the initial ingress router. The egress router inserts a sticky destination sub type length value (Sticky-Dst-SubTLV) into a destination option header of the second packet. The egress router transmits the second packet with the Sticky-Dst-SubTLV to the ingress router.
