Abstract
A packet processing method, a network device, and a network system are provided, which are related to the field of communication technologies. According to the method, an intermediate node updates a source IP address of a packet based on an IP address that belongs to a local end in an endpoint IP address of a connection, and updates a destination IP address of the packet based on an IP address that belongs to a remote end in the endpoint IP address of the connection. Therefore, in a scenario in which an SR path crosses underlay transport networks in a plurality of different routing domains, a problem that a packet is discarded because a source IP address is always an IP address of a head end and URPF check fails is avoided.
