'''Segment routing''', a form of [[computer networking]], is a modern variant of [[source routing]] that is being developed within the [https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/spring/about/ SPRING] and IPv6 working groups of the [[IETF]]. In a [[network segment|segment]] routed network, an ingress node may prepend a [[Header (computing)|header]] to [[network packet|packets]] that contain a list of segments, which are instructions that are executed on subsequent nodes in the network. These instructions may be forwarding instructions, such as an instruction to forward a packet to a specific destination or interface.
