scheme

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Use the scheme statement to define a resolution scheme that maps a mapping community to an ordered list of RIBs used for protocol next-hop (PNH) resolution. Any route community can be used as a mapping community. When a route is received with a mapping community, the device resolves the next hop using the associated resolution scheme, which can be user-defined or auto-created.

A resolution scheme specifies the ordered sequence of RIBs to consult during next-hop lookup, providing deterministic primary and fallback resolution behavior. The RIBs can include any valid RIBs, such as inet.0, inet.3, or other transport-specific RIBs.

If a user-defined scheme is configured for a mapping community, it takes precedence over any auto-created scheme associated with the same community, and the router uses the explicitly configured RIB resolution order.
