Test Objectives

Test Goals

The test goals and deliverables are:

• Validate solutions through incremental testing efforts or test profiles.
• Identify and close solution gaps to ensure completeness.
• Build and deliver full test reports and design recommendations for network engineers implementing this solution.
• Provide configuration details, design, and implementation guidance for validated use cases.

The solution delivers SRv6 mSID-based transport architecture. These architectures include features like Flex-Algo Prefix Metric (FAPM) and use inter-domain designs with SRv6 locator summarization and Transport Classes for end-to-end multi-domain service mapping.

This SRv6 mSID infrastructure provides L2 (different EVPN variants) and L3 Services.

Other JVD solutions delivered as part of an existing Metro JVD track are:

• Metro Ethernet Business Services—Juniper Validated Design (JVD) : Leveraging metro fabric design concepts to support wholesale service delivery mechanisms.
• Low-Latency QoS Design for 5G: Support differentiated workloads with an advanced low-latency CoS model.
• 5G xHaul CSR Seamless Segment Routing—Juniper Validated Design (JVD): Using fronthaul access and aggregation principles.
• 5G Fronthaul Class of Service—Juniper Validated Design (JVD) : Applying Class of Service modelling for access and aggregation architectures.

Test Non-Goals

The test non-goals are:

• More advanced SRv6 mSID transport options (SRv6-TE)
• IS-IS Multi-instance with Instance ID TLV (TLV #7)
• Service enhancements (EVPN E-LAN, EVPN-VPWS PWHT) over SRv6
• MPLS to mSRv6 migration strategies and interworking functions
• SRv6 classic SID and SRv6 mSID migration or co-existence
• SRv6 EVPN E-LAN service resolution over non-ISIS routes (SRv6 dynamic tunnels)
• Unreachable Prefix Announcement (UPA)
• FBF or CBF (filter-based forwarding, class-based forwarding) over Flex-Algo and SRv6-TE
• Class-of-Service (CoS)
• Network Slicing with SRv6
• SRv6-TE with external controller (using PCEP)
• Colored service resolution with resolution fallback
• FRR-style backup across multiple IS-IS domains
• MVPN in SRv6 networks
• High-availability features for SRv6, such as Graceful Restart (GR), Graceful Routing Engine Switchover (GRES), and Non-Stop Active Routing (NSR)
• BGP only (no IGP) IPv6 fabrics (i.e., DC fabric with SRv6 underlay)
• Protocol-less (no BGP or IGP) IPv6 fabric with µN and µA configured statically by an external controller
