## The Evolution: LDP → SR
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Remember how LDP assigns labels? It works, but it has problems:
|
|||
|
|
- LDP creates a **full mesh of label bindings** — every router gets a label for every prefix
|
|||
|
|
- LDP is a **separate protocol** that must stay in sync with IS-IS (if they disagree, traffic blackholes)
|
|||
|
|
- No built-in traffic engineering
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Segment Routing (SR)** fixes all of this by embedding labels directly into IS-IS (or OSPF). No more LDP. No more synchronization issues.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## How SR Works
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Instead of LDP negotiating labels between neighbors, each router advertises a **Segment ID (SID)** via IS-IS:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Prefix SID** = A label for reaching a specific router's loopback (replaces what LDP does)
|
|||
|
|
- **Adjacency SID** = A label for a specific link (used for traffic engineering)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The SID is an **index** added to a globally configured **SRGB (Segment Routing Global Block)**. Default SRGB: 16000–23999.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Example: If P1's Prefix SID index is 1, its label is **16001** everywhere in the network. No negotiation needed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Lab 6 Config: Enable Segment Routing
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**On every router (replace LDP):**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
! Remove LDP (optional — SR and LDP can coexist, but pure SR is cleaner)
|
|||
|
|
no mpls ldp router-id Loopback0 force
|
|||
|
|
!
|
|||
|
|
! Enable SR in IS-IS
|
|||
|
|
router isis YOURSP
|
|||
|
|
segment-routing mpls
|
|||
|
|
segment-routing prefix-sid-map advertise-local
|
|||
|
|
!
|
|||
|
|
interface Loopback0
|
|||
|
|
ip router isis YOURSP
|
|||
|
|
isis prefix-sid index <UNIQUE_NUMBER>
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**SID Index Assignments:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Router | Loopback | Prefix SID Index | Resulting Label |
|
|||
|
|
|--------|----------|-----------------|----------------|
|
|||
|
|
| P1 | 10.0.0.1 | 1 | 16001 |
|
|||
|
|
| P2 | 10.0.0.2 | 2 | 16002 |
|
|||
|
|
| P3 | 10.0.0.3 | 3 | 16003 |
|
|||
|
|
| P4 | 10.0.0.4 | 4 | 16004 |
|
|||
|
|
| P-CORE | 10.0.0.5 | 5 | 16005 |
|
|||
|
|
| PE-EDGE1 | 10.0.0.11 | 11 | 16011 |
|
|||
|
|
| PE-EDGE2 | 10.0.0.12 | 12 | 16012 |
|
|||
|
|
| PE-EDGE3 | 10.0.0.13 | 13 | 16013 |
|
|||
|
|
| PE-EDGE4 | 10.0.0.14 | 14 | 16014 |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Verification
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
show isis segment-routing prefix-sid-map
|
|||
|
|
show mpls forwarding-table ! Labels should now be 16xxx
|
|||
|
|
show isis database detail ! Look for SR TLVs in the LSPs
|
|||
|
|
show segment-routing mpls state
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Understanding Check
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Why is SR simpler than LDP? What failure mode does it eliminate?
|
|||
|
|
2. What's the SRGB and why does it need to be the same on every router?
|
|||
|
|
3. What's the difference between a Prefix SID and an Adjacency SID?
|
|||
|
|
4. Can SR and LDP coexist? When would you want that?
