Verifying backup path traceroute
The essential components necessary for conducting the nil-fec
traceroute are derived from the previously mentioned RIB, FIB, or LFIB outputs and are as follows:
- Label stack (top to bottom):
16008, 16005
- Outgoing interface:
GigabitEthernet0/0/0/1
toward P6 - Next-hop IP address of outgoing interface:
26.0.0.6
toP6
Using these components together in the traceroute nil-fec
command on router P2
, as shown next, validates the availability of the single-segment TI-LFA backup path in the network:
