Routing

Hi.

I'm testing the processing of received Segment Routing BGP Color communities, and I find that the segment-routing-te configuration, though mentioned in Juniper training documentation, doesn't really do anything. I remove it and nothing changes. So what's this knob for?

protocols {

   bgp {

      group IBGP {

         type internal;

         local-address 192.168.100.7;

         family inet {

            segment-routing-te; <<<<<<<<<<<< What's this for?

            unicast {

               extended-nexthop-color;

           }

       }

   }

}

Thanks,

Deepak

Hi,

Only "extended-nexthop-color" is required for next hop resolution via "inetcolor.0".

"segment-routing-te" is used for a different purpose. It allows BGP to be used as a transport protocol to carry SRTE policies.
