Abstract
Systems and methods for segment compaction in Segment Routing with resiliency to restoration include, responsive to a path having been computed in a Segment Routing network from a source node to a destination node, assuming all failed links in the Segment Routing network are temporarily restored; and determining a segment list, with all of the failed links assumed temporarily restored, that corresponds to the computed path, such as by preferring node segments over adjacency segments to match the computed path.
