Release	Modification
Release 6.3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Explicit BSIDs are allocated from the segment routing local block (SRLB) or the dynamic range of labels. A best-effort is made to request and obtain this BSID for the SR-TE policy. If requested BSID is not available (if it does not fall within the available SRLB or is already used by another application or SR-TE policy), the policy stays down.

Use this command to specify how the BSID allocation behaves if the BSID value is not available.

Examples

The following example shows how to specify how the BSID allocation behaves if the BSID value is not available.

Fallback to dynamic allocation:

Router# configure
Router(config)# segment-routing

kshortest-paths

To set the maximum number of attempts for SR-TE to compute paths that satisfy cumulative metric bounds criteria, use the kshortest-paths command in SR-TE configuration mode. To revert to the default number of attempts (100), use the no form of the command.

kshortest-paths max-attempts

no kshortest-paths

Syntax Description


`max-attempts`	Maximum number of attempts. Choose a value between 1 and 200.

Command Default

100 attempts are made to compute paths that satisfy the cumulative metric bounds criteria.

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration (config-sr-te)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

By default, a maximum of 100 attempts are made. To update the value, you can use this command.

You can use the show segment-routing traffic-eng policy color command (Number of K-shortest-paths field) to see the K-shortest path algorithm computation result. For example, if the Number of K-shortest-paths field displays 4, it means that the K-shortest path algorithm took 4 computations to find the right path. The 4 shortest paths that are computed using K-shortest path algorithm did not respect the cumulative bounds, and the fifth shortest path was valid against the bounds.

Examples

This example shows how to set the maximum number of attempts for computing paths that satisfy the cumulative metric bounds criteria:

Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# kshortest-paths 120
Router(config-sr-te)# commit

logging

To enable SYSLOG alarms related to PCEP peer-status and SR-TE policies, use the logging command in SR-TE submode.

logging { pcep peer-status | policy status }

Syntax Description


pcep peer-status	Enables PCEP peer status SYSLOG alarms.
policy status	Enables SR-TE related SYSLOG alarms.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

No specific guidelines impact the use of this command.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable logging for SR-TE policies.

Router# configure
Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# logging policy status

maximum-sid-depth

To customize the maximum number of SIDs advertised by the router or signaled by the PCC during PCEP session establishment, use the maximum-sid-depth command in SR-TE sub-mode or SR-TE ODN sub-mode.

maximum-sid-depth value

Syntax Description


`value`	Specifies the maximum number of SIDs advertised by the router or signaled by the PCC during PCEP session establishment. The range is from 1 to 255.

Command Default

The default MSD value is equal to the maximum MSD supported by the platform (555).

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

SR-TE On-Demand Next-Hop (SR-ODN) configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The default MSD value is equal to the maximum MSD supported by the platform (555).

Note

The platform's SR-TE label imposition capabilities are as follows:

Up to 5 transport labels when no service labels are imposed
Up to 3 transport labels when service labels are imposed

Up to 5 transport labels when no service labels are imposed
Up to 3 transport labels when service labels are imposed

Up to 5 transport labels when no service labels are imposed
Up to 3 transport labels when service labels are imposed

For cases with path computation at PCE, a PCC can signal its MSD to the PCE in the following ways:

During PCEP session establishment – The signaled MSD is treated as a node-wide property.
- MSD is configured under segment-routing traffic-eng maximum-sid-depth value command.

During PCEP LSP path request – The signaled MSD is treated as an LSP property.

On-demand (ODN) SR Policy: MSD is configured using the segment-routing traffic-eng on-demand color color maximum-sid-depth value command.

Note

If the configured MSD values are different, the per-LSP MSD takes precedence over the per-node MSD.

After path computation, the resulting label stack size is verified against the MSD requirement.

If the label stack size is larger than the MSD and path computation is performed by PCE, then the PCE returns a "no path" response to the PCC.
If the label stack size is larger than the MSD and path computation is performed by PCC, then the PCC will not install the path.

Note

A sub-optimal path (if one exists) that satisfies the MSD constraint could be computed in the following cases:

For a dynamic path with TE metric, when the PCE is configured with the pce segment-routing te-latency command or the PCC is configured with the segment-routing traffic-eng te-latency command.
For a dynamic path with LATENCY metric
For a dynamic path with affinity constraints

For example, if the PCC MSD is 4 and the optimal path (with an accumulated metric of 100) requires 5 labels, but a sub-optimal path exists (with accumulated metric of 110) requiring 4 labels, then the sub-optimal path is installed.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure the MSD during PCEP session establishment. The signaled MSD is treated as a node-wide property:


RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config)# segment-routing
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr)# traffic-eng
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te)# maximum-sid-depth 4

The following example shows how to configure the MSD during PCEP LSP path request for the On-demand (ODN) SR Policy. The signaled MSD is treated as an LSP property:


RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config)# segment-routing
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr)# traffic-eng
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 250
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te-color)# maximum-sid-depth 4

max-install-standby-cpaths

To configure standby candidate paths for all SR policies, for a specific policy, or for an ODN template, use the max-install-standby-cpaths command.

To disable the configuration for global SR policies, use the no form of this command.

max-install-standby-cpaths value

Syntax Description


`value`	Specifies the number of non-active CPs to program in forwarding. The range for value is from 1 to 3 for global SR policies, and from 0 (disable) to 3 for local and ODN policies.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

SR-TE Policy configuration

SR-TE On-Demand Next-Hop (SR-ODN) configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.6.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Up to three non-active CPs can be programmed in the forwarding plane.
Manually configured CPs are supported. This includes CPs with explicit paths or dynamic (head-end computed or PCE-delegated) paths.
On-Demand instantiated CPs (ODN) are supported.
BGP-initiated CPs are supported.
PCE-initiated CPs via PCEP are not supported.
Programming of non-active CPs is not supported with SRv6-TE policies, Per-Flow Policies (PFP), or point-to-multipoint SR policies (Tree-SID)
PCEP reporting of additional CPs is supported, but the PCEP reporting does not distinguish between active and non-active CPs.
Programming of non-active CPs can be enabled for all SR policies (global), for a specific policy (local), or ODN template.

If enabled globally and locally or on ODN template, the local or ODN configuration takes precedence over the global configuration.
- Programming of non-active CPs under global SR-TE and configuring policy path protection of an SR policy is supported. In this case, policy path protection takes precedence.
- Programming of non-active CPs for a specific SR policy and configuring policy path protection of an SR policy is not supported.
The number of policies supported could be impacted by the number of non-active CPs per policy. Programming non-active CPs in the forwarding plane consumes hardware resources (such as local label and ECMP FEC) when more candidate paths are pre-programmed in forwarding than are actually carrying traffic.
The active CP will be in programmed state. The remaining CPs will be in standby programmed state.
We recommend that you create separate PM sessions for active and standby candidate paths to monitor the health of the paths end-to-end.
The protected paths for each CP is programmed in the respective LSPs. The protected paths of active CPs are programmed in the active LSP, and the protected paths of standby CPs are programmed in the standby LSP.
If a candidate path with higher preference becomes available, the traffic will switch to it in Make-Before-Break (MBB) behavior.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure standby candidate paths globally:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# max-install-standby-cpaths 2
Router(config-sr-te)#

The following example shows how to configure standby candidate paths for a specific SR policy:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# policy MyBackupPolicy
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# max-install-standby-cpaths 2 
Router(config-sr-te-policy)#

The following example shows how to configure standby candidate paths for an SR ODN template:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10
Router(config-sr-te-color)# max-install-standby-cpaths 1
Router(config-sr-te-color)#

The following example shows how to enable three standby CPs globally and disable standby CPs on SR policy and ODN template:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# max-install-standby-cpaths 3
Router(config-sr-te)# policy MyBackupPolicy
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# max-install-standby-cpaths 0 
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# exit
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10
Router(config-sr-te-color)# max-install-standby-cpaths 0
Router(config-sr-te-color)#

max-metric

Use the max-metric command in the SR-TE sub-mode to set the protocol advertising maximum metric. This will render the router as a less preferable intermediate hop for other routers.

Release 24.1.1	The resources option was introduced.
Release 7.9.1	For Cisco IOS XR Release 7.9.1, you must reconfigure all SR-ODN configurations with Flexible Algorithm constraints that use the on-demand dynamic sid-algorithm with the on-demand constraints command.
Release 7.4.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

No specific guidelines impact the use of this command.

Examples

The following example shows how to add an SR Flexible Algorithm constraint:

Router(config-sr-te-color)#constraints segments sid-algorithm 128

The following example shows how to associate the excluded IPv4 addresses for ODN SR-TE policies:

Router(config)#segment-routing
Router(config-sr)#traffic-eng 
Router(config-sr-te)#on-demand color 7001
Routerconfig-sr-te-color)#constraints resources exclude resource-list node_resc_list

on-demand dynamic affinity

To configure the affinity constraints for dynamic ODN paths, use the on-demand dynamic affinity command in SR-TE sub-mode.

on-demand color color dynamic affinity { include-all | include-any | exclude-any } [ name name ]

Syntax Description


affinity {include-all \| include-any \| exclude-any}	Specify the affinity type.
name `name`	Name of the affinity.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

No specific guidelines impact the use of this command.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure the affinity contraints .


Router# configure
Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10 dynamic
Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn)# affinity include-all name CROSS
Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn)#

on-demand dynamic bounds

To configure SR-TE ODN to calculate a shortest path with cumulative metric bounds, use the on-demand dynamic bounds command in SR-TE sub-mode.

on-demand color color bounds cumulative type { hopcount | igp | latency | te } metric

Syntax Description


type {hopcount \| igp \| latency \| te}	Specify the metric type.
`metric`	Specify the bound metric value. Valid values are from 1 to 4294967295.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

When an SR policy is configured on a head-end node with these metric bounds, a path is finalized towards the specified destination only if it meets each of these criteria.

PCE-based cumulative metric bounds computations are not supported. You must use non-PCE (SR-TE topology) based configuration for path calculation, for cumulative bounds.

If you use PCE dynamic computation configuration with cumulative bounds, the PCE computes a path and validates against cumulative bounds. If it is valid, then the policy is created with this path on PCC. If the initial path doesn't respect the bounds, then the path is not considered, and no further K-shortest path algorithm is executed to find the path.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure IGP, TE, hop count, and latency metric bounds for the SR-ODN color template:


Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 1000 dynamic 
Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn) bounds cumulative
Router(config-sr-te-odc-bounds-type)# type igp 100
Router(config-sr-te-odc-bounds-type)# type te 60
Router(config-sr-te-odc-bounds-type)# type hopcount 6
Router(config-sr-te-odc-bounds-type)# type latency 1000

on-demand dynamic disjoint-path

To configure the disjoint-path constraints, use the on-demand dynamic disjoint-path command in SR-TE sub-mode.

on-demand color color dynamic disjoint-path group-id id type { link | node | srlg | srlg-node } [ { sub-id | | sub_id | fallback disable } ]

Syntax Description


group-id `id`	Specify the group ID of the disjoint path. Valid values are from 1 to 65535.
type {link \| node \| srlg \| srlg-node }	Specify the type of disjointness.
sub-id `id`	Specify the sub-group ID of the disjoint path. Valid values are from 1 to 65535.
fallback disable	Disable all fallback behavior in case the requested disjointness cannot be achieved.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 24.1.1	The fallback disable keyword was introduced.
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Configures the disjoint group ID and defines the preferred level of disjointness (the type of resources that should not be shared by the two paths):

link—Specifies that links are not shared on the computed paths.
node—Specifies that nodes are not shared on the computed paths.
srlg—Specifies that links with the same SRLG value are not shared on the computed paths
srlg-node—Specifies that SRLG and nodes are not shared on the computed paths.

If a pair of paths that meet the requested disjointness level cannot be found, then the paths will automatically fallback to a lower level:

If the requested disjointness level is SRLG or node, then link-disjoint paths will be computed.
If the requested disjointness level was link, or if the first fallback from SRLG or node disjointness failed, then the lists of segments encoding two shortest paths, without any disjointness constraint, will be computed.

Examples

Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn)# disjoint-path group-id 775 type link

The following example indicates how to configure strict disjointness for an ODN SR-TE policy:

Router(config)#segment-routing traffic-eng 
Router(config-sr-te)#on-demand color 4

Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn)#disjoint-path group-id 1 type node fallback disable
Router(config-sr-te-color-dyn)#commit

on-demand dynamic metric

To configure the On-Demand dynamic path metric, use the on-demand dynamic metric command in SR-TE sub-mode.

on-demand color color dynamic metric { margin { absolute value | relative percent } margin | type { hopcount | igp | latency | te } }

Syntax Description


metric {absolute `value` \| relative `percent` }	Specify the On-Demand dynamic path metric margin. The range for margin and percent is from 0 to 2147483647.
type { hopcount \| igp \| latency \| te }	Specify the metric type for use in path computation.

Examples

Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10 dynamic pcep

on-demand dynamic sid-algorithm

Note

For Cisco IOS XR Release 7.9.1, you must reconfigure all SR-ODN configurations with Flexible Algorithm constraints that use the on-demand dynamic sid-algorithm with the on-demand constraints command.

To configure the SR Flexible Algorithm constraints, use the on-demand dynamic sid-algorithm command in SR-TE sub-mode.

on-demand steering

on-demand color color steering { labeled-services disable | path-invalidation drop }

Syntax Description


labeled-services disable	Disable steering of labeled-services for on-demand color policies. This configuration applies for a specific ODN color.
path-invalidation drop	Drop traffic but keep the SR policy up in the control plane.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.0.1	This command was introduced.
Release 7.4.1	The path-invalidation drop keywords are introduced.

Usage Guidelines

labeled-services disable: The SR-TE MPLS Label Imposition Enhancement feature increases the maximum label imposition capabilities of the platform.

In previous releases, the platform supported:
- Up to 5 MPLS transport labels when no MPLS service labels are imposed
- Up to 3 MPLS transport labels when MPLS service labels are imposed
With the SR-TE MPLS Label Imposition Enhancement feature, the platform supports the following:
- Up to 12 MPLS transport labels when no MPLS service labels are imposed
- Up to 9 MPLS transport labels when MPLS service labels are imposed
This enhancement is enabled and disabled dynamically, as the label count changes. For example, if a path requires only 3 MPLS transport labels, the MPLS Label Imposition Enhancement feature is not enabled.

You can disable labeled services for SR-TE policies. The label switching database (LSD) needs to know if labeled services are disabled on top of an SR-TE policy to perform proper label stack splitting.
path-invalidation drop:

By default, if an SR Policy becomes invalid, traffic would fall back to the native SR forwarding path. In some scenarios, a network operator may require that certain traffic be only carried over the path associated with an SR policy and never allow the native SR LSP to be used. This command is introduced to meet this requirement.

With path-invalidation drop enabled, an SR policy that would become invalid (for example, no valid candidate path available) is programmed to drop traffic. At the same time, the SR policy stays up in the control plane to prevent prefixes mapped to the SR policy from falling back to the native SR LSP.

When the SR policy becomes valid again, forwarding over the SR policy resumes.

Examples

The following example shows how enable the dropping of traffic when an On-Demand SR Policy becomes invalid.

Router# configure
Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10
Router(config-sr-te-color)# steering
Router(config-sr-te-on-demand-color-steering)# path-invalidation drop

Router# configure
Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10
Router(config-sr-te-color)# steering

Release	Modification
Release 7.4.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

By default, if an SR Policy becomes invalid, traffic would fall back to the native SR forwarding path. In some scenarios, a network operator may require that certain traffic be only carried over the path associated with an SR policy and never allow the native SR LSP to be used. This command is introduced to meet this requirement.

With path-invalidation drop enabled, an SR policy that would become invalid (for example, no valid candidate path available) is programmed to drop traffic. At the same time, the SR policy stays up in the control plane to prevent prefixes mapped to the SR policy from falling back to the native SR LSP.

When the SR policy becomes valid, forwarding over the SR policy resumes.

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

A PCE can be given an optional precedence. If a PCC is connected to multiple PCEs, the PCC selects a PCE with the lowest precedence value. If there is a tie, a PCE with the highest IP address is chosen for computing path. The precedence value range is from 0 to 255.

Examples

The following shows how to configure the SR-PCE address.


Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-engineering
Router(config-sr-te)# pcc pce address ipv4 1.1.1.2 precedence 250

pcc report-all

To enable the PCC to report all SR policies in its database to the PCE, use the pcc report-all command in SR-TE configuration mode.

pcc report-all

To configure the PCC source address, use the pcc source-address command in SR-TE configuration mode.

pcc source-address ipv4 address

Syntax Description


`address`	Specifies the local IPv4 address of the PCC.

Command Default

None

pcc timers { deadtimer seconds | delegation-timeout seconds | initiated { orphan seconds | state seconds } | keepalive seconds }

Syntax Description


deadtimer `seconds`	Specifies how long the remote peers wait before bringing down the PCEP session if no PCEP messages are received from this PCC. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds.
delegation-timeout `seconds`	Specifies how long a delegated SR policy can remain up without an active connection to a PCE. The range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
initiated orphan `seconds`	Specifies the amount of time that a PCE-initiated SR policy will remain delegated to a PCE peer that is no longer reachable by the PCC. The range is from 10 to 180 seconds.
initiated state `seconds`	Specifies the amount of time that a PCE-initiated SR policy will remain programmed while not being delegated to any PCE. The range is from 15 to 14440 seconds (24 hours).
keepalive `seconds`	Specifies how often keepalive messages are sent from PCC to its peers. The range is from 0 to 255 seconds.

Command Default

Keepalive: 30 seconds

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To better understand how the PCE-initiated SR policy timers operate, consider the following example:

PCE A instantiates SR policy P at head-end N.
Head-end N delegates SR policy P to PCE A and programs it in forwarding.
If head-end N detects that PCE A is no longer reachable, then head-end N starts the PCE-initiated orphan and state timers for SR policy P.
If PCE A reconnects before the orphan timer expires, then SR policy P is automatically delegated back to its original PCE (PCE A).
After the orphan timer expires, SR policy P will be eligible for delegation to any other surviving PCE(s).
If SR policy P is not delegated to another PCE before the state timer expires, then head-end N will remove SR policy P from its forwarding

Examples


Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# pcc
Router(config-sr-te-pcc)# timers keepalive 20
Router(config-sr-te-pcc)# timers deadtimer 60

Router(config-sr-te-pcc)# timers initiated orphan 60
Router(config-sr-te-pcc)# timers initiated state 1200

policy bfd

To enable SBFD on an SR-TE policy or an SR on-demand (SR-ODN) color template and enter BFD configuration mode, use the policy bfd command in SR-TE configuration mode

policy policy bfd { disable | invalidation-action { down | none } | logging session-state-change | minimum-interval interval | multiplier multiplier | reverse-path binding-label label }

Syntax Description


disable	Disables BFD session.
invalidation-action {down \| none}	Specifies the action to be taken when BFD session is invalidated. down: LSP can only be operationally up if the BFD session is up. none: BFD session state does not affect LSP state, use for diagnostic purposes
loggingsession-state-change	Displays a syslog when the state of the session changes.
minimum-interval `interval`	Specifies the interval between sending BFD hello packets to the neighbor. The range is from 50 to 30000 milliseconds.
multiplier `multiplier`	Specifies the number of times a packet is missed before BFD declares the neighbor down. The range is from 2 to 10.
reverse-path binding-label `label`	(SR-TE policy only) Spcifies BFD packets return to head-end by using a binding label.

Command Default

minimum-interval = 150

multiplier = 3

Command Modes

SR-TE policy

SR-TE ODN

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.0.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Do not use BFD with disjoint paths. The reverse path might not be disjoint, causing a single link failure to bring down BFD sessions on both the disjoint paths.

reverse-path binding-label: (SR-TE policy only) Use the reverse-path binding-label label command to specify BFD packets return to head-end by using a binding label.

By default, the S-BFD return path (from tail-end to head-end) is via IPv4. You can use a reverse binding label so that the packet arrives at the tail-end with the reverse binding label as the top label. This label is meant to point to a policy that will take the BFD packets back to the head-end. The reverse binding label is configured per-policy.

Note that when MPLS return path is used, BFD uses echo mode packets, which means the tail-end’s BFD reflector does not process BFD packets at all.

The MPLS label value at the tail-end and the head-end must be synchronized by the operator or controller. Because the tail-end binding label should remain constant, configure it as an explicit BSID, rather than dynamically allocated.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable SBFD on an SR-TE policy:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng 
Router(config-sr-te)# policy POLICY1 
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# bfd
Router(config-sr-te-policy-bfd)# invalidation-action down
Router(config-sr-te-policy-bfd)# minimum-interval 250
Router(config-sr-te-policy-bfd)# multiplier 5
Router(config-sr-te-policy-bfd)# reverse-path binding-label 24036
Router(config-sr-te-policy-bfd)# logging session-state-change

The following example shows how to enable SBFD on an SR-ODN color:

Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng 
Router(config-sr-te)# on-demand color 10
Router(config-sr-te-color)# bfd
Router(config-sr-te-color-bfd)# minimum-interval 250
Router(config-sr-te-color-bfd)# multiplier 5
Router(config-sr-te-color-bfd)# logging session-state-change 
Router(config-sr-te-color-bfd)# invalidation-action down

policy binding-sid mpls

To specify the explicit BSID, use the policy binding-sid mpls command in SR-TE policy mode.

binding-sid mpls label

Syntax Description


`label`	Explicit binding SID label

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE policy

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Explicit BSIDs are allocated from the segment routing local block (SRLB) or the dynamic range of labels. A best-effort is made to request and obtain the BSID for the SR-TE policy. If requested BSID is not available (if it does not fall within the available SRLB or is already used by another application or SR-TE policy), the policy stays down.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an SR policy to use an explicit BSID of 1000:


Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# policy FOO
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# binding-sid mpls 1000

policy candidate-paths constraints affinity

To configure affiity constraints on an SR-TE policy, use the policy candidate-paths constraints affinity command in SR-TE configuration mode.

policy policy candidate-paths preference preference constraints affinity { include-all | include-any | exclude-any } name name

Syntax Description


policy `policy`	Specifies the name of the policy.
candidate-paths preference `preference`	Configures the candidate path preference. The range is from 1 to 65535.
constraints affinity `{` include-allinclude-anyexclude-any}	Configures the affinity constraints.
name `name`	Specifies the affinity name.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE policy

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The candidate path with the highest preference is the active candidate path (highlighted below) and is installed in forwarding.

You can apply a color or name to links or interfaces by assigning affinity bit-maps to them. You can then specify an affinity (or relationship) between an SR policy path and link colors. SR-TE computes a path that includes or excludes links that have specific colors,or combinations of colors

Examples

The following example shows how to associate affinity constraints for an SR-TE policy:

Router(config-sr-te)# policy POLICY1
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# color 20 end-point ipv4 1.1.1.4
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# candidate-paths
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path)# preference 200
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)# constraints affinity exclude-any red

policy candidate-paths constraints disjoint-path

policy policy candidate-paths preference preference constraints disjoint-path group-id id type { link | node | srlg | srlg-node } [ { sub-id | | sub_id | shortest-path | fallback disable } ]

Syntax Description


group-id `id`	Specify the group ID of the disjoint path. Valid values are from 1 to 65535.
type {link \| node \| srlg \| srlg-node }	Specify the type of disjointness.
sub-id `id`	Specify the sub-group ID of the disjoint path. Valid values are from 1 to 65535.
shortest-path	Enable shortest path computation for the selected candidate path.
fallback disable	Disable all fallback behavior in case the requested disjointness cannot be achieved.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 24.1.1	The shortest-path and fallback disable keywords were introduced.
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Configures the disjoint group ID and defines the preferred level of disjointness (the type of resources that should not be shared by the two paths):

link—Specifies that links are not shared on the computed paths.
node—Specifies that nodes are not shared on the computed paths.
srlg—Specifies that links with the same SRLG value are not shared on the computed paths
srlg-node—Specifies that SRLG and nodes are not shared on the computed paths.

If a pair of paths that meet the requested disjointness level cannot be found, then the paths will automatically fallback to a lower level:

If the requested disjointness level is SRLG or node, then link-disjoint paths will be computed.
If the requested disjointness level was link, or if the first fallback from SRLG or node disjointness failed, then the lists of segments encoding two shortest paths, without any disjointness constraint, will be computed.

Examples


Router(config-sr-te)# policy FOO

Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)#constraints disjoint-path group-id 1 type node fallback disable
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)#commit

policy candidate-paths constraints resources

To exclude IP addresses from the path computation for SR-TE policies, use the policy candidate-paths constraints resources command in the SR-TE configuration mode.

Usage Guidelines

An Anycast SID is a type of prefix SID that identifies a set of nodes and is configured with n-flag clear. The set of nodes (Anycast group) is configured to advertise a shared prefix address and prefix SID. Anycast routing enables the steering of traffic toward multiple advertising nodes, providing load-balancing and redundancy. Packets addressed to an Anycast address are forwarded to the topologically nearest nodes.

Examples

The following example shows how to request a PCC-initiated Anycast SID-aware path computation at the head-end router:


Router(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng 
Router(config-sr-te)# policy FOO
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# color 10 end-point ipv4 1.1.1.10
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# candidate-paths 
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path)# preference 100
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)# dynamic 
Router(config-sr-te-pp-info)# anycast-sid-inclusion

policy candidate-paths dynamic metric

policy policy candidate-paths preference preference dynamic metric { margin { absolute | relative } margin | sid-limit value | type { hopcount | igp | latency | te } }

Syntax Description


metric {absolute \| relative } `margin`	Specify the On-Demand dynamic path metric margin. The range for margin is from 0 to 2147483647.
sid-limit `value`	Specify the maximun SID depth (MSD).
type { hopcount \| igp \| latency \| te }	Specify the metric type for use in path computation.

Command Default

Usage Guidelines

No specific guidelines impact the use of this command.

Examples

Router(config-sr-te)# policy POLICY1
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# color 10 end-point ipv4 1.1.1.4
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# candidate-paths
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path)# preference 100
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)# explicit segment-list SIDLIST1

policy candidate-paths per-flow

To map a forward class to a per-flow policy, use the policy candidate-paths per-flow command.

policy policy candidate-paths preference preference per-flow forward-class { value color color | default value }

Syntax Description


forward-class `value`	Specify the forward class (FC). Values are from 0 to 7.
color `color`	Specify the color of the policy.
default `value`	Explicitly specify a default FC.

Command Default

When not explicitly configured, FC 0 is the default FC.

Command Modes

SR-TE policy

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.2.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

When not explicitly configured, FC 0 is the default FC.

A Per-Flow Policy (PFP) defines an array of FC-to-PDP mappings. A PFP can then be used to steer traffic into a given PDP based on the FC assigned to a packet.

A Per-Flow Policy (PFP) is considered valid as long as its default FC has a valid Per-Destination Policy (PDP).

A color associated with a PFP SR policy cannot be used by a non-PFP SR policy. For example, if a per-flow ODN template for color 100 is configured, then the system will reject the configuration of any non-PFP SR policy using the same color. You must assign different color value ranges for PFP and non-PFP SR policies.

Examples

Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# policy FOO
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# candidate-paths
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path)# preference 100
Router(config-sr-te-policy-path-pref)# per-flow
Router(config-sr-te-pol-cp-pfp)# forward-class 0 color 10
Router(config-sr-te-pol-cp-pfp)# forward-class 1 color 20

policy candidate-paths preference lock duration

To enable a new lock duration for the Protect candidate path, use the policy candidate-paths preference lock duration command in the SR-TE configuration mode. To remove the lock function for a Protect path, use the no form of the command.

policy name [ candidate-paths [ preference preference [ lock [ duration seconds ] ] ] ]

Syntax Description


candidate-paths [preference `preference`]	(Optional) Configures the candidate path preference. The range is from 1 to 65535.
lock [duration `seconds`]	(Optional) Enables the specified lock duration for the Protect candidate path. The default lock duration is 300 seconds.

Command Default

The default Protect path lock duration is 300 seconds.

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration (config-sr-te)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.4.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

When the Working path is invalid, the Protect path becomes active. After the Working path has recovered, the Protect path remains active until the default lock duration (300 seconds) expires. You can configure a different lock duration using this command.

The duration range is 0 (disabled) to 3000 seconds. If the lock duration is 0 (disabled), then the Working path becomes active as soon as it recovers. If duration is not specified, the Protect path remains active.

Examples

This example shows how to enable a new lock duration of 600 seconds for the Protect candidate path:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios# configure 
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng 
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te)# policy foo candidate-paths preference 50 lock duration 600 
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te)# commit

policy color end-point

To configure the SR-TE color and end-point address, use the policy color end-point command.

policy policy color color end-point { ipv4 | ipv6 } ip_addr

Syntax Description


color `color`	Specify the color of the SR policy.
end-point {ipv4\|ipv6} `ip_addr`	Specify the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the end-point.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE policy

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

An SR-TE policy is identified as an ordered list (head-end, color, end-point):

Head-end – Where the SR-TE policy is instantiated
Color – A numerical value that distinguishes between two or more policies to the same node pairs (Head-end – End point)
End-point – The destination of the SR-TE policy

Every SR-TE policy has a color value. Every policy between the same node pairs requires a unique color value.

Examples

Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# policy POLICY1
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# color 10 end-point ipv4 1.1.1.4

policy ipv6 disable

To disable IPv6 encapsulation (IPv6 caps) for a particular color and IPv4 NULL end-point, use the ipv6 disable command is SR-TE configuration mode.

policy ipv6 disable

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.5.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

IPv6 caps for IPv4 NULL end-point is enabled automatically when the policy is created in Segment Routing Path Computation Element (SR-PCE). The binding SID (BSID) state notification for each policy contains an "ipv6_caps" flag that notifies SR-PCE clients (PCC) of the status of IPv6 caps (enabled or disabled).

An SR-TE policy with a given color and IPv4 NULL end-point could have more than one candidate path. If any of the candidate paths has IPv6 caps enabled, then all of the remaining candidate paths need IPv6 caps enabled. If IPv6 caps is not enabled on all candidate paths of same color and end-point, traffic drops can occur.

You can disable IPv6 caps for a particular color and IPv4 NULL end-point using the ipv6 disable command on the local policy. This command disables IPv6 caps on all candidate paths that share the same color and IPv4 NULL end-point.

Examples

This example shows how to disable IPv6 caps for a particular color and IPv4 NULL end-point:

Router(config)# segment-routing
Router(config-sr)# traffic-eng
Router(config-sr-te)# policy P1
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# color 1 end-point ipv4 0.0.0.0
Router(config-sr-te-policy)# ipv6 disable

policy path-protection

To enable path-protection for an SR-TE policy’s candidate paths, use the policy path-protection command in the SR-TE configuration mode. To disable SR-TE policy path-protection, use the no form of the command.

policy name [ path-protection ]

Syntax Description


path-protection	(Optional) Specifies that path-protection should be enabled for the specified policy.

Command Default

Path-protection is not enabled for an SR-TE policy’s candidate paths.

Command Modes

SR-TE configuration (config-sr-te)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.4.2	This command was introduced.

Examples

This example shows how to enable SR-TE policy path-protection for the policy foo:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios# configure 
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config)# segment-routing traffic-eng 
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te)# policy foo path-protection
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(config-sr-te-path-pref-protection)#commit

Syntax Description


policy `policy`	Specifies the SR policy name.
liveness-detection	Enables end-to-end SR Policy Liveness Detection
invalidation-action {none \| down}	Specifies the action to take when the PM liveness session goes down: down (default): The candidate path is immediately operationally brought down. none: No action is taken. If logging is enabled, the failure is logged but the SR Policy operational state is not modified.
logging session-state-change	Enables Syslog messages when the session state changes.
logging delay-exceeded	Enables Syslog messages when the delay exceeds the threshold.
delay-profile name `profile`	Specifies the SR Policy delay profile name.
reverse-path label {`BSID-value` \| `NODE-SID-value`}	Specifies the MPLS label to be used for the reverse path for the reply. If you configured liveness detection with ECMP hashing, you must specify the reverse path. The default reverse path uses IP Reply. BSID-value: The Binding SID (BSID) label for the reverse SR Policy. (This is practical for manual SR policies with a manual BSID.) NODE-SID-value: The absolute SID label of the (local) Sender Node to be used for the reverse path for the reply.

Command Default

None
