Establish MPLS Transport Label Distribution via Segment-Routing

Topology

  1. Enable Segment-Routing extensions to IS-IS, leveraging MPLS data plane encapsulation.

    • The Segment Routing Global Block (SRGB) label range should be 900,000965,535 on all Service Provider nodes.
  2. Configure each node with a globally unique Node SID equal to 900,000+NodeID.

    • For example, EOS1 should have a Node SID of 900,001.
  3. Review IS-IS adjacency SIDs on EOS2 and EOS5.

    Question

    Is there overlap? If so, will this present an issue? Why or Why not?

  4. Validate that all Service Provider nodes have a globally unique Node SID.

  5. To protect against black holes, and reduce convergence time:

    • Enable the equivalent of IGP Sync and Session-Protection within the Segment-Routing domain.
  6. Once this task has been completed, all Service Provider nodes should have an LSP established for reachability between loopbacks:

    ping mpls segment-routing ip x.x.x.x/32 source y.y.y.y
    
    traceroute mpls segment-routing ip x.x.x.x/32 source y.y.y.y
    
Success
