Abstract
Systems and methods for extended protection in a Segment Routing network that utilizes Flexible Algorithm include defining a first Flexible Algorithm that segregates the Segment Routing network into a first subset network that excludes any of links and nodes from the Segment Routing network; defining a second Flexible Algorithm that segregates the Segment Routing network into a second subset network, different from the first subset network; and defining extended protection for the first Flexible Algorithm with the second Flexible Algorithm whereby the second Flexible Algorithm is usable for path to protect the first Flexible Algorithm.
