Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for service communication proxy (SCP) routing are disclosed. One example method for SCP routing comprises: at a first SCP associated with a first domain, the first SCP including at least one processor: receiving a first request destined for a network function; determining that the first request lacks routing path information for the first request; generating, using SCP domain routing information obtained from a network function repository function (NRF), a sequence of domains usable for routing the first request to the network function; adding, to the first request, the routing path information indicating the sequence of domains; determining, using the routing path information or the sequence of domains, a second SCP for routing the first request; and sending the first request comprising the routing path information to the second SCP.
