Abstract
Systems and methods associated with a node in a Segment Routing network include, responsive to what services are support at a node in a Segment Routing network, creating a bitmap to represent the plurality of services supported at the node; and transmitting an advertisement with the bitmap such that the advertisement is a single advertisement of multiple services. This approach can reduce the advertisement of rout updates by orders of magnitude.
