With the rapid development of the digital economy, the fourth industrial revolution begins. The network is one of the key elements of the development of the digital economy. With the expansion of the network scale and the increase of service types, different services have different requirements on the network. Traditional IP/MPLS networks face challenges.

The emergence of innovative IPv6-based technologies, including SRv6, network slicing, BIERv6, and APN6, solve the preceding problems and accelerate network development. SRv6 is the foundation of IPv6 technology innovation, which is Intelligence, Ultra-simplified, and Native IP. SRv6 is a powerful tool for IP network construction. It also promotes the development of IPv6.
