Release Information

Statement introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.

Description

Configure an explicit path (a sequence of strict or loose routes) to control where and how a bypass LSP is established. If multiple bypasses are configured, they all will use the same explicit path.

Default

No path is configured. CSPF automatically calculates the path the bypass LSP takes.

Options

address—IP address of each transit router in the LSP. You must specify the address or hostname of each transit router, although you do not need to list each transit router if its type is loose. As an option, you can include the ingress and egress routers in the path. Specify the addresses in order, starting with the ingress router (optional) or the first transit router, and continuing sequentially along the path until reaching the egress router (optional) or the router immediately before the egress router.
loose—The next address in the path statement is loose. The LSP can traverse other routers before reaching this router.
strict—The LSP must go to the next address specified in the path statement without traversing other nodes. This is the default.

Usage Guidelines

See Configuring an Explicit Path for Bypass LSPs.
