Original Abstract Submitted
A communication method, device, and system are disclosed, and pertain to the field of communication technologies. The method includes: After determining a node set including a node that supports segment routing, a controller may send a target segment identifier list to a source node, to indicate the source node to forward a packet of a target flow based on the target segment identifier list, where the source node of the target flow in a communication network belongs to the node set. According to the communication method provided in this application, the target segment identifier list can be sent to the source node of the target flow, to indicate a packet forwarding path of the target flow, thereby reducing network link congestion, and improving packet forwarding efficiency.
