The Spine as a P-Node: Pure High-Speed Label and Packet Forwarding

Traditional core transit routers (P-nodes) are burdened with heavy software feature sets and massive routing tables that complicate traffic forwarding.
🚀 The Lean Alternative: Configure fabric spines to act as ultra-fast, stripped-down transit nodes focused strictly on processing outer SRv6 IPv6 headers.
Why this represents a structural transformation for core transport efficiency:
✅ Simplified Lookups: Spine nodes forward traffic using standard IPv6 routing tables, completely eliminating the need to maintain complex customer state.
✅ Optimized Price-to-Performance: Lowers hardware costs by utilizing highly efficient, deep-buffer merchant silicon optimized purely for speed.
✅ Abstracted Edge Services: Pushes advanced network features out to the edge nodes, leaving the transit core clean, fast, and highly reliable.
