MAKE-BEFORE-BREAK MECHANISM FOR LABEL SWITCHED PATHS |
摘要 |
In one embodiment, a device in a network determines that traffic sent via a first label switched path should be sent via a new label switched path. The device sends the traffic along the new label switched path using a label stack that indicates one or more adjacency segments or interface binding labels. A particular node along the new label switched path is configured to forward the traffic via a particular interface of the node based on a corresponding interface binding label or adjacency segment indicated by the traffic. The device completes a switchover from the first path to the new path. |

1. A method, comprising:
determining, by a device in a network, that traffic sent via a first label switched path should be sent via a new label switched path; sending, by the device, the traffic along the new label switched path using a label stack that indicates one or more adjacency segments or interface binding labels, wherein a particular node along the new label switched path is configured to forward the traffic via a particular interface of the node based on a corresponding interface binding label or adjacency segment indicated by the traffic; and completing, by the device, a switchover from the first path to the new path. |
