The examples of the present disclosure provide a method and a device for determining a Segment Identity, and relates to the field of communication. The solution is as follows: receiving a first message and a second message sent by a second device; the first message includes at least one first Block Identity and a boundary address of an address space corresponding to each first Block Identity; the second message includes at least a second Block Identity and a first index value; calculating the first SID by using a boundary address of a first address space corresponding to a same Block and the first index value, where the same Block is a Block characterized by the same Block Identity in at least one first Block Identity and at least one second Block Identity. By applying the technical solution provided by the examples of the present disclosure, the overhead of messages in the process of issuing SIDs is reduced, thus ensuring the performance of devices and the stability of message transmission protocol.
A method for determining a Segment Identity, applied to a first device in an SRv6 network, wherein the SRv6 network further comprises a second device, wherein the first device and the second device are neighbor devices to each other, and the second device stores a first Segment Identity SID, and the method comprises:
An electronic device, wherein the electronic device is a first device in an SRv6 network, and the SRv6 network further comprises a second device, wherein the first device and the second device are neighbor devices to each other, and the second device stores a first Segment Identity SID, and the electronic device comprises:
