SRv6 policy support for Layer 2 and Layer 3 services

The following services can resolve their next hop over an SRv6 policy in TTMv6:

As with MPLS SR policies, the next hop resolution is based on the color (if present) and on the comparison of the next hop with the SR policy endpoint. The color, the endpoint, and the head end define a matching policy, but a matching policy can be an SR MPLS policy or an SRv6 policy. Therefore, the service also uses the data plane technology of the policy to select the tunnel type to resolve over:

An SRv6 service cannot fall back to an MPLS tunnel type. Suppose the configuration of the resolution allows an SRv6 policy, but an SRv6 policy with a matching color and endpoint does not exist in TTMv6. In that case, the SRv6 service can fall back to any SRv6 shortest path tunnel in TTMv6 or RTM, if the locator of the tunnel matches the locator of the SRv6 service.

Use the resolution command to control the automatic binding of SRv6 services to SRv6 tunnels. The resolution options are:

Use the resolution command in the following contexts to configure the resolution options:
