When a local locator is enabled in the MT2 IPv6 unicast topology of an IS-IS instance, IS-IS advertises the following routes:
Multi-topology TLV | Codepoint | IS-IS context TLV | Description | SR support |
---|---|---|---|---|
Multi-topology IPv6 Reach TLV | 237 | Is a top Level IS-IS TLV |
This is the main prefix TLV MT-ID field set to 2 |
Yes |
SRv6 Locator TLV | 27 | Is a top Level IS-IS TLV |
Indicates the locator, configured on this node, is used to terminate SIDs in algorithm 0 and flex-algo 128-255 MT-ID field set to 2 |
Yes |
SRv6 End SID Sub-TLV | 5 | SRv6 Locator TLV | Advertises the SID for the endpoint or End function (equivalent of prefix SID in SR-MPLS) | Yes |
Prefix Attribute Flags Sub-TLV | 4 |
SRv6 Locator TLV (also in IPv6 Reach TLV 237) |
Indicates the prefix of the locator is anycast | Yes |
SRv6 End.X SID Sub-TLV | 43 | Top level Multi-topology Extended IS Reachability TLV (222) | Advertises the SID for the adjacency or End.X function over a P2P link (equivalent of adjacency SID sub-TLV for P2P link in SR-MPLS) | Yes |
SRv6 LAN End.X SID sub-TLV | 44 | Top level Multi-topology Extended IS Reachability TLV (222) | Advertises the SID for the adjacency or End.X function over a LAN (equivalent of adjacency SID sub-TLV for LAN in SR-MPLS) | Yes |
SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV | 1 |
SRv6 End SID Sub-TLV, SRv6 End.X SID Sub-TLV, SRv6 LAN End.X SID Sub-TLV |
Provides the length of each field (Block, Locator, Function, and Argument) of the SRv6 SID it is advertised with |
No SR OS does not advertise this sub-sub-TLV. If received from other vendor's implementation, it is not displayed in Link-State database and is also not propagated with the locator TLV. |
Application Specific Link Attributes (ASLA) sub-TLV | 16 | Top level Multi-topology Extended IS reachability TLV (222) | Advertises the link attributes for the flex-algo application | Yes |
Application-Specific Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) TLV | 238 | Is a top Level IS-IS TLV | Advertises the link SRLG attribute for the flex-algo application |
No SRLG constraint is not supported in IS-IS MT0 or MT2. IS-IS does not advertise this TLV and does not use it for any puspose if received from the network. |
In prior releases of SR OS, only local locator routes and local prefix routes were redistributed with an export policy between topologies MT0 and MT2 of the same IS-IS instance or different IS-IS instances. These local locators were redistributed as a prefix TLVs and not as a locator TLVs. In addition, the tag of the local locator was not redistributed. Routes of remote locators and remote prefixes were not redistributed.
Redistribution between MT0 and MT2 topologies of the same IS-IS instance is not allowed for both remote locator and remote prefix routes.
