Explanation
SRv6 (Segment Routing over IPv6) relies on IGP and BGP control-plane extensions to distribute SID (Segment Identifier) information. OSPFv3 has been extended with SRv6 capabilities through RFC drafts that allow it to advertise SRv6 locators and SIDs within its LSAs. BGP has been extended via BGP-LS and BGP with SRv6 policy (RFC 9252) to distribute SRv6 SIDs and policies. RIP (Option C) is a legacy distance-vector protocol with no SRv6 extensions and is largely obsolete. IGRP (Option D) is a Cisco-proprietary legacy protocol that has been replaced by EIGRP and has no SRv6 support. EIGRP (Option E), while still used in enterprise networks, does not have standardized SRv6 extensions in the way OSPF and BGP do.
